Coreopsis ‘Solar Moon’ is a standout perennial known for its profusion of soft yellow flowers accented with striking dark red centers. Blooming from June to October, ‘Solar Moon’ ensures a vibrant display throughout the season, attracting bees and butterflies to your garden. This variety showcases a round, compact, bushy, and upright growth habit, reaching about 20 inches in height and 18 inches in width. Its fresh green foliage remains lush and healthy throughout the season, adding to its ornamental appeal. ‘Solar Moon’ thrives in full sun and adapts well to a variety of soil types, including poorer or sandy soils, as long as they are well-draining.
