plant sale text: Coastal-plain tickseed is great for adding a bit of early fall color to your border. The yellow composite flowers are reminiscent of some Rudbeckia, but you can easily identify this plant by the 3 lobes at the ends of individual flower petals and its narrow linear leaves that grow wider farther down the stem. Coastal-plain tickseed forms small clumps and is also good for naturalizing around moist areas; the moist border of a water garden just might be the perfect place. Birds and small mammals love to eat the seeds in the fall.
