Coreopsis basalis. See image source here.

#987 They called me Coreopsis basalis, also known as Coreopsis drummondii, Coreopsis drummondii var. wrightii, Coreopsis wrightii, Coreopsis basalis var. wrightii, and Calliopsis drummondii. I pay homage to the male botanists Drummond (I couldn’t find his records), and Charles Henry Wright, Charles Wright, Edward Perceval (Percival) Wright, John Wright, or William Wright. They first catalogued me in 1916.
