Robust Rudbeckias
Rudbeckias are a diverse group of easy-to-grow, reliable, and long-blooming flowers. Native to North America, rudbeckias are a popular choice for seasoned gardeners and beginners alike. These bright, cheery flowers will thrive in full to part sun; most are drought-tolerant once established. Choose from these lively varieties:
| Rudbeckia hirta Prairie Sun - This robust rudbeckia has distinctive blooms. The light green cone blends beautifully with its bright, primrose-tipped, golden petals. Five-inch blooms make a strong statement in any full-sun garden. Easy to grow and maintain, Prairie Sun is a memorable plant in any perennial, annual, or cut flower garden. Use this variety as a forceful focal point in any large container. |
|
| Rudbeckia Sonora - With a large mahogany ring centered among golden-yellow petals, the Sonora really stands out in the garden. Vigorous, five-inch flowers are eye-catching on neat, compact plants that grow to 18 inches. The uniqueness of the Sonora makes it an excellent, unusual choice for summer and autumn color. |

| Rudbeckia Cordoba - A well-branched plant with an abundance of vivid, two-tone flowers, Cordoba is an attractive choice. Equally striking in cut flower arrangements and in the garden, this variety will reach a final height of three feet. |
