Rudbeckia (S, F)
Hardy in Zones 3-9.
Black-eyed Susan
Once established, Black-eyed Susies form large, dense clumps that will tolerate considerable drought. Plant 2 ft. apart in full sun to part shade in ordinary soil so tops of plants are level with the surface. Deadheading spent blooms encourages a longer blooming season. Plants are easily divided in spring when they become crowded.
