"One of the finest perennials available" (Armitage), this compact (to 2') coneflower freely produces its 2-3" deep-yellow, blacked-eyed flowers for a magnificent show in late summer. S/M (not dry)
Bushy, clump-forming perennial. Large daisy-like flowers with deep yellow petals surround a brown center cone. Great cut flower. Attracts songbirds to the garden. Best in moist, well-drained soil. Long lasting color in mixed borders, background plants or annual screening. Low to moderate water once established.
Great for butterfly gardens. Flowers produce seeds that feed many different varieties of birds.
A very useful and easy plant that is long-flowering in late Summer and Autumn. Its deep yellow daisy flowers have dark centres and it looks amazing with ornamental grasses. It will manage with part sun conditions. Selected by the Perennial Plant Association as Perennial Plant of the Year 1999.
A great plant that has been a victim of its own success. So over planted for a while there it was easy to get sick of it. Despite the overexposure, still a great plant, 2-3 foot mounds that totally cover themselves with classic bright yellow, black centered daisies in the late summer and into fall. Easy and problem free. Zone 3
A profusion of dark-eyed golden yellow, 3-5", daisies are held above the tidy rosette of foliage throughout summer. A reliable, tough, and deservedly award winning clump forming perennial. Excellent for butterflies and the birds will enjoy the seedheads in winter.Goldstrum Rudbeckia is an award winning selection of our native Rudbeckia fulgida which is native to much of the eastern and central United States.
