Rudbeckia triloba, Brown-Eyed Susan, Quart - Gallon pot
Rudbeckia triloba,
FS-PS, Zone 3, blooms first year, heavier year 2, June - September, 4-5’ x 2’ WD average soil, drought tolerant.
A native wildflower that is an excellent addition to naturalized areas, wildflower meadows, prairies, cottage gardens, native plant gardens and borders. The plant’s dark green basal leaves are divided into three, thus the name. It is a short-lived perennial that reseeds to continue and form dense clumps. Good in naturalized settings. Ours have bloomed the first year from seed, although if googled it may tell you the plant takes two years to bloom. We found it amazing that the seedlings we planted were twice eaten down to the ground by rabbits and then grew to 4’ and bloomed. We love this plant. It seems to bloom forever and is part of the last color in fall.
Attracts native bees, honey bees, butterflies, beetles, beneficial wasps and hover flies. The seed heads are relished by Gold Finches and different species of sparrows. Host plant for Pearl Crescent, Silvery Checkerspot and Wavy- Lined Emerald butterflies.
