Tall Coreopsis
coreopsis tripteris
Tall Coreopsis (Coreopsis tripteris) is a stately, native North American perennial wildflower that stands out for its exceptional height and late-summer brilliance. Belonging to the aster family, this robust plant typically towers over neighboring prairie vegetation, producing dense clusters of sunny yellow, daisy-like blossoms that bloom from mid-summer into early autumn. It is highly valued in habitat restoration projects and native gardens alike because of its incredible resilience, low-maintenance nature, and outstanding ability to support diverse pollinator populations during the late season.
生息地: Typically found in tallgrass prairies, open woodlands, savannas, thickets, moist meadows, and along sunny roadsides.
外見
This towering perennial reaches heights between 90 and 270 cm. It features smooth, sturdy green stems that often branch near the top. The leaves are distinctive, typically divided into three lance-shaped lobes (trifoliate), giving the foliage a delicate, airy appearance despite the plant's size. Each flower head is about 3 to 5 cm wide, sporting eight bright yellow ray florets surrounding a contrasting dark purplish-brown central disc that releases a faint, pleasant anise scent when bruised.

おもしろい事実
Because of its imposing height, early American settlers often used wild stands of Tall Coreopsis as indicators of highly fertile prairie soil.
The scientific name 'tripteris' translates to 'three-winged', referencing the plant's characteristic deeply divided three-part leaves.
Unlike many other yellow sunflowers, the central disk of Tall Coreopsis smells distinctly of licorice or anise when crushed.
特殊能力
能力
Towering Growth Rate
Rapidly shoots upward in late spring to outcompete neighboring grasses and maximize exposure to full sunlight.
能力
Deep Rhizomatous Rooting
Utilizes a deep, fibrous root system with underground rhizomes to survive droughts, wildfires, and extreme winter temperatures.
能力
Anise-Scented Defense
Its central discs emit an anise-like aroma that acts as a visual and olfactory beacon for beneficial pollinators while deterring certain herbivores.
