Tickseed

Tickseed is a wonderful perennial that blooms throughout the summer and fall, providing a long season of color. These plants are easy keepers, simply deadhead the blooms to keep the colorful flowers growing. You’ll also love that this plant is attractive to butterflies and finches, but not to deer.

There are many varieties to choose from, including short and tall blooms with single or double flowers. Whether you’re looking to add yellows, reds, oranges, pinks or even multi-colored flowers to your garden, this plant offers the color you desire.

‘Moonbeam,’ ‘Early Sunrise,’ ‘Full Moon,’ ‘Zagreb,’ and ‘ Route 66,’ are some of the most popular varieties you’ll see when you shop for Tickseed.
