Tickseed grows 14'-18" tall and 24" wide quickly. It is a heat and wind tolerant variety that is perfect for cascading, bright color in baskets, containers, and window boxes. Finely divided, dark green, narrow foliage is covered with gold, single, slightly fragrant flowers. It blooms until first frost. Plant in full sun. It needs well-drained soil. This is a denser variety than the parent plant. Deadheading not necessary as new blooms keep coming up! Perennial is frost free areas.

Water Saving Tip:

Change spray sprinklers to low-flow bubbler or drip systems. Shrubs and trees are ideal candidates for this type of irrigation because the water is applied directly to the root zones.
