Coreopsis nudata, commonly known as Georgia Tickseed, is a deciduous perennial herb native to the wet savannas, pine flatwoods, and marsh edges in the Southeastern United States. It typically grows to a height of 1-5 feet (0.3-1.5 meters) and a width of about 1 foot (0.3 meters). The plant features narrow, lance-shaped leaves and bears daisy-like flowers with yellow centers and pink to purple rays, which bloom profusely from late spring to mid-summer, providing a showy display.

Georgia Tickseed is valued for its vibrant flowers and ability to attract pollinators such as butterflies and bees. It is often used in wildflower gardens, rain gardens, and as a border plant in moist areas. This species thrives in full sun but can tolerate partial shade and prefers consistently moist to wet soil conditions. It is relatively low maintenance but may require division every few years to maintain vigor. While generally disease-resistant, it can be susceptible to powdery mildew in crowded or poorly ventilated conditions.CC BY-SA 4.0
