Rudbeckia triloba is a Brown-eyed Susan with a bounty of bright yellow flowers and dark cones from mid-summer to frost.
Description:
Rudbeckia triloba brings a cheery display to the late summer garden with a bounty of 1-2 inch wide sun-kissed yellow flowers with dark brown cones on sturdy, well-branched stems. This award-winning brown-eyed Susan usually grows to 2-4 feet tall, sometimes taller. It is a hardy biennial or short-lived perennial but naturalizes well by gently self-seeding. Use in the back of a sunny border for vertical appeal and colour. Spectacular when massed in drifts. Long-lasting in the vase. Attracts pollinators and birds. Deer resistant.
