Coreopsis also known as Tick seed.
Tick seed is one of the plants known as a pollinator because of it's ability to attract butterflies to your garden.
The pollen in this flower is a energy source for caterpillars and insects making it very important to any thriving garden.
It is the state flower of Florida.
As you can see in my picture they are beautiful sunny flowers. I have two large patches but they did not flower as well this year as they did last year. They are really pretty to look at when they are blooming, and watching the butterflies swarming to them really does keep happy thoughts active.
