Rudbeckia fulgida var. deamii
black-eyed Susan
Charming, daisy-like flowers with prominent, cone-shaped, blackish-brown centres appear in abundance from August to October. This beautiful 'black-eyed Susan' is an excellent choice for the middle of a late summer border and it associates particularly well with ornamental grasses. It is a particularly free-flowering variety, that is best planted in bold drifts in a sunny or partially shady site that doesn't dry out over summer.
How to care for Rudbeckia fulgida var. deamii:
Lift and divide congested colonies in autumn or spring. Support with ring stakes or brushwood well before the flowers appear.
