If you’re in to the natural flower garden look and like plants with a long bloom period, Rudbeckia triloba, commonly known as the Brown Eyed Susan, is a must-have North American native biennial plant that will freely naturalize along sunny woodland borders or in meadow or wildflower gardens. From early to mid summer well into fall this native flowering factory produces LOADS of cute coneflowers with bright yellow rays surrounding a purplish brown center cone. The leaves of this species are thinner than other Rudeckia some being 3-lobed, hence the species name.

The Brown Eyed Susan Daisy is very easy to grow in most any moist but well-drained soil of average fertility and in full sun to mostly sun. We suggest at least 6 hours of direct sun per day for best flowering and overall performance. Deadhead spent flowers to encourage additional bloom and/or to prevent any unwanted self-seeding. This biennial will freely self-seed if spent flowers are not removed. But reseeding is a desirable thing when growing it in meadow and wildflower gardens.
