Features

notes

Rudbeckia fulgida var. Sullivantii Goldsturm is an outstanding choice for summer colour, and one that will keep giving well into the autumn. Colloquially called Black-eyed Susan, the daisy-like flowers of rudbeckia produce a generous number of large, single blooms with an orange tint. A recipient of the RHS AGM (Award of Garden Merit), for all round excellence.

Insights

Technically called an Echibeckia™, which is produced by crossing the annual rudbeckia with the hardiness of the perennial echinacea. The remarkable result is larger and longer lasting flowers, as well as a prolonged flowering season.

Details
  • Flowering period: June to September
  • Fully hardy
  • Cut flowers
Planting

Care

A good choice for the middle of a border, it is extremely tolerant of most soil types and locations, and can deal with drought once established. Plant in a bold drift with other late summer-flowering perennials, and especially ornamental grasses. Dead-head faded flowers.
