Lance-Leaf Coreopsis (Coreopsis lanceolata L.)



The pretty golden flower is 3" wide and has long narrow leaves (up to 8 inches long). This plant can be found blooming in April thru June in the Western 2/3 of Tennessee. Look at the notched ray flowers. Found in dry, open, often sandy soils. Lance-Leaf Coreopsis is listed as "occasional" as they are found in only 11-31 counties of TN.
