About This Plant
Thread-leaf Coreopsis is a bushy perennial in the daisy family that produces cheery yellow flowers and thin, thread-like leaves, as the name suggests. It does will in infertile soils with high amounts of sand and rocky areas. It can tolerate a salty environment as well. Cutting back flowers after first bloom sometimes produces more flowers in fall.
