Bidens trichosperma
Overview
Crowned Beggarticks, or Bidens trichosperma, is a bright and showy perennial plant. Growing up to four and a half feet tall, it has glossy, green-maroon leaves and yellow flowers. This drought-tolerant, sun-loving plant is native to Southeast Asia but naturalized in the United States. With a nature appreciation for warmth and humidity, it also prefers rich, well-drained soils. Its slightly serrated leaves form an attractive crown around the ruffled yellow flowers. Deer and rabbits avoid it, making it a great choice for wild gardens. Its beautiful foliage and flowers will definitely add a vibrant touch to any landscape.
