Rudbeckia fulgida

Golden-yellow daisies with dark chocolate centres bring blazing colour just as many summer flowers begin to fade. Rudbeckia fulgida produces masses of cheerful blooms over many weeks, creating a glowing display that carries borders effortlessly into autumn. The upright stems weave naturally among ornamental grasses and late perennials, adding colour and movement without looking overly formal. Bees and butterflies flock to the nectar-rich flowers, making this perennial as lively as it is eye-catching. Its strong colour contrast gives planting schemes real energy, whether used in prairie-style borders or mixed cottage gardens. Reliable and long-flowering, it earns its place year after year with minimal fuss and maximum impact. As the season progresses, the dark seed heads continue to add texture and interest, extending its decorative value well beyond peak flowering. Ultimate height: 60cm (24in).
