Rudbeckia fulgida var. sullivantii 'Goldsturm'
Plant Details:
Plant Type: Perennial
Plant Family: Asteraceae
Plant Description: Bright, golden yellow petals with a dark center. Blooms from summer until frost. Prefers moderately moist soil but will do okay if watered once per week. Used in borders, containers, and beds, and will produce seeds eaten by many birds if left and not deadheaded.
Maintenance:
Maintenance Type: Perennial - Herbaceous
Plant Care: Perennial - Herbaceous (soft-stemmed plants that die back in winter and regrow in spring): Remove spent blooms to promote rebloom later. Some plants tend to flop over after the first bloom and attempt to regrow from the base; in these cases, the old stems can be cut away in summer. As plants become dormant in the fall, remove dead leaves and stems.
