Black Eyed Susan - Seeds & Bare Root Plant
(Rudbeckia hirta)
A classic wildflower that is native to much of North America, Black Eyed Susan is interesting in that it can act as a biennial or perennial depending on its growing conditions. Even if it is short-lived, it readily self seeds and spreads to form large clusters in our fields. It is very drought tolerant, although it does quite well in damper meadows. In the summer tiny bees swarm the flowers and in fall, birds feast on the seeds. Only growing 3’ tall at most, this is an excellent wildflower for the front of your garden beds.
Hardiness: Zone 3-9
Soil: Loam, clay, sand, dry to moist
Light: Full sun to part shade
Options:
Packet of approximately 200 seeds.
Bare Root Plants can be planted into loose soil in the Fall or Spring and kept moist until new growth emerges.
