The listing, Organic ✽ BROWN EYED SUSAN ✽ 15 seeds has ended.

This is my beautiful Brown-Eyed Susan, Rudbeckia Triloba. This is a very showy perennial with an airy appeal and numerous small blooms on each bract. They prefer a little more moisture than the typical Black-Eyed Susans, though they have been surprisingly drought tolerant in my yard. Mark the area you plant them because they emerge and bloom late in the season. The seed-heads are beautiful if left on over winter, and songbirds will nibble all the way until spring on them. The seed head are decorative and have a spicy scent, perfect for adding to pot-pourie. They are reliable bloomers and will self-seed if conditions are ideal, giving you years of enjoyment. They are very hardy and very little care is needed. I believe the "strong shall survive" in my garden. You will appreciate my motto!
