Coreopsis takes its name from Kore in Greek mythology. While picking wildflowers in the meadow, Kore (also known as Persephone) was abducted by Hades and taken to the underworld. In despair, Demeter struck a bargain that would allow her daughter to return each spring after four months of barren winter. For the eight months Kore is in the land of the living, there is continuous revelry and the world blooms with color and joy. The coreopsis plant was also sacred to the Cherokees and Apaches, who used the plant for spring rituals and blessings.
