Add late-season height and bright color with Coreopsis tripteris 'Gold Standard'. You get tall, airy stems topped with cheerful yellow daisy-like blooms that light up the garden from late summer into fall, plus blue-green foliage that stays attractive through the growing season.

Place it where you can enjoy the flowers up close and still give it room to rise above neighboring perennials. Plant in full sun for the strongest stems and best bloom, but it will also perform in part shade, especially where summers run hot. Mature plants typically stand about 60-72 inches tall and spread 60-72 inches, forming a large clump that reads as a bold vertical accent without looking stiff or formal.

Give it well-drained soil and even moisture while it establishes; once rooted in, it handles short dry spells better than many tall perennials. For the cleanest look, avoid rich, heavily amended soils that can encourage lanky growth. If your site is very windy or your soil is especially fertile, you may want to stake or use a discreet support ring early in the season. Deadhead if you want a tidier finish, or let seedheads mature to add texture and feed birds.
