Bidens cernua
Nodding Beggarticks
- Annual
- Wet to moderately wet soils
- Full Sun
- 36” tall, 18” to 24” wide
- Mid summer to fall blooming
- Ontario Native Species, Annual, High moisture ecosystems.
Still new to me, grown from seeds from the Ottawa Wildflower Seed Library.
A fairly showy member of the Biddens family, I suspect that these will adapt reasonably to growing in containers, so I’m going to give them a try this summer. I’ll also tuck a few into a seasonally flooded drainage ditch area to see how they do there.
