Nursery contributed plant descriptions

The bright golden yellow 4-5" daisies are born on tall sturdy stems that are held above the rich green rounded foliage. The Sabine Coneflower is native to consistently moist to bog-like conditions and will probably fare best in a moist to average garden soil. This tall growing Rudbeckia or Black-Eyed Susan is a rare native with a distribution that is limited to a few parishes and counties in western Louisiana and east Texas. Grown from locally collected seed.
