Coreopsis auriculata 'Nana' (Mouse-Ear Tickseed) is a beloved dwarf perennial that produces a carpet of golden-orange daisy flowers. Its distinctive lobed leaves, resembling mouse ears, form a lush evergreen mat that provides year-round interest.

Our professional-grade Coreopsis is built for longevity with a robust root system and organic heritage. It is a workhorse in the garden, functioning beautifully as a heavy-blooming groundcover or a sunny border edger that returns year after year.

  • Long Blooming: Provides golden color from mid-spring through early summer.
  • Evergreen Foliage: Deep green leaves provide groundcover even in winter.
  • Pollinator Favorite: A vital early-season food source for bees and butterflies.
  • Deer Resistant: Generally ignored by deer and other garden foragers.
  • Drought Tolerant: Highly resilient once established in the landscape.

These 4" healthy live plants thrive in full sun to partial shade with moderate water needs.
