Nursery contributed plant descriptions

'Little Goldstar' is a dwarf cultivar growing to only 14-16 inches and topped with masses of black-eyed Susan flowers with rich gold petals and a black cone. Great for small spaces, the front of the border and containers with a long-flowering habit from summer into fall. The larger form of this species, Rudbeckia fulgida 'Goldsturm', is a garden classic selected by the PPA as Perennial Plant of the Year 1999. The image compares 'Goldsturm' and 'Little Goldstar'.

More floriferous (up to 80 2" golden star-burst daisies on a plant!) and more compact (a rounded dense 14-16" clump), this prairie almost-native will look great in a container, border, or...prairie! S/M-D/GDr

Dependable, long blooming Black-eyed Susan with bright orange gold rays surrounding a jet black cone center from mid-summer to fall. 14-16” tall and a bit wider, the flowers attract bees, butterflies and the seedheads are bird treats. Good cut flower; easy to grow in sun and decent soil with average water… great performer in pots also.
