Rudbeckia is a genus of flowering plants that are native to North America. They have bright yellow, daisy-like flowers with large, dark brown or black center cones. The leaves are lanceolate and generally clump together in rosettes at the base of the stems.

Rudbeckia is a great choice for beginner and experienced gardeners alike because it’s easy to care for, and its showy blooms add color and interest to any garden. It also attracts bees, butterflies, and other pollinators that can help support your other plantings.

Caring for Rudbeckia is relatively easy – it prefers full sun but will tolerate some shade. It does best in moist soil with good drainage, though it can handle short periods of dryness. As far as fertilizing, a balanced liquid fertilizer applied every few weeks in the growing season is recommended.

Deadheading spent flowers will help keep your plants blooming throughout the summer and into fall.

Protect Rudbeckia from cold winter temperatures by mulching around the base of the plant. With proper care and maintenance, Rudbeckia will give you beautiful blooms year after year!
