Here is a lovely native plant that is usually plentiful around this area, Lance-leaf Coreopsis,
( Coreopsis lanceolata ) It is a perennial and it blooms all season, so it is a very desireable plant. Coreopsis is a combination word from Greek and Latin, meaning looking like a bug.
It refers to the looks of the seed head, which looks like a beetle. Another common name isTickseed.
