Coreopsis X UpTick Cream Tickseed is a striking perennial known for its dense clusters of daisy-like, creamy yellow flowers that bloom profusely from early summer into fall. This hybrid tickseed is celebrated for its compact, mounding habit, typically reaching about 12-15 inches in height, making it an excellent choice for borders, containers, and mass plantings. The UpTick Cream variety is particularly valued for its exceptional heat and drought tolerance, low maintenance needs, and resistance to common pests and diseases, which align well with sustainable garden practices. Coreopsis, commonly called tickseed, has a rich horticultural history rooted in North America, where native species have been used to attract pollinators such as bees and butterflies. This cultivar’s vivid cream-colored petals and consistent bloom performance have distinguished it within the Coreopsis genus, earning recognition from prominent plant societies for its garden reliability and ornamental appeal.
