The raves keep coming in about 'Moonbeam'! Gardeners everywhere prize its profuse, summer-long bloom of creamy-yellow flowers so daintily colored they enthrall without overwhelming. And unlike most Coreopsis, 'Moonbeam' doesn't mind a bit of shade, yet flourishes in full sun as well! The ferny, light-as-air foliage adds to the delicate effect of the blooms, which are lovely in the garden or in containers of any type. So versatile, yet so simple to grow!The single 1- to 1 1/2-inch blooms are shaped like daisies, with outstretched petals and frivolous freckled yellow-and-brown eyes. They open so abundantly that at times the plant looks like a mass of luminous butter-yellow, yet individual blooms are startlingly beautiful, with a dainty, star-shaped effect. Plants reach 1 1/2 to 2 feet tall--just right for the front of the border, along the walkway, in baskets, windowboxes, or planters of any description. Like all Coreopsis, 'Moonbeam' is exceptionally tolerant of heat and drought, blooming from early summer till frost! Zones 3-9.
