Rudbeckia hirta
Black-eyed Susan
This is the quintessential Black-eyed Susan of the native stars with its large golden yellow flowers and dark-brown, conical centers. It is easy to grow and is a species often used in native wildflower seed mixes. Plants produce a bright show of color mid-spring through summer, and will self-seed for a later display.
