Photo of the Week: My Garden Today, Coreopsis in Bloom

With the cool weather and heavy spring rains ending (we hope!) in southeast Michigan, my early summer flowers are finally in bloom.

Including one of my favorites, the yellow-petaled Coreopsis that blooms in my front courtyard.

I believe the blooms in this post are a hybrid between the Field Coreopsis I’ve had for years (with tall, lanky stems) and the shorter height red-centered Rising Sun Coreopsis my neighbor gave me years ago.

Coreopsis is one of those flowers I love having in my garden!

They typically bloom from early June to late October/early November in our area, providing beautiful yellow color for two seasons.

What’s blooming in your garden today?
