Planting Considerations: Leavenworth’s coreopsis will reseed in moist soil, if not to heavily mulched. Consider using it as a mulch, weaving it through a medium to moist wildflower planting where it can fill in spaces between other longer lived wildflowers and grasses.
Field Notes: Nearly endemic to Florida, Leavenworth’s tickseed is common in moist roadside ditches and meadows, pond and lakesides.
