Description

Rudbeckia is a genus of flowering plants in the family Asteraceae, commonly known as coneflowers or black-eyed Susans. They are native to North America and are valued for their showy yellow or orange flowers that bloom from mid-summer to autumn. These hardy perennials are easy to grow and require minimal care. They prefer full sun to partial shade and well-drained soil. Deadheading spent blooms will encourage continuous blooming throughout the season. Rudbeckias are versatile plants that look great in borders, cottage gardens, and wildflower meadows. They also make excellent cut flowers. Some popular varieties include Rudbeckia fulgida ‘Goldsturm’, Rudbeckia hirta ‘Indian Summer’, and Rudbeckia triloba ‘Prairie Glow’. They can be paired with other perennials such as echinacea, asters, and grasses to create stunning mixed plantings.
