A true garden classic, perennial plant with dramatic 1- to 2-inch, sunny, golden-yellow blooms encasing a chocolate brown/black cone center, Rudbeckia fulgida 'Goldsturm' (or Black Eyed Susan as she is commonly called) promises to deliver height, depth and contrast to any landscape. She is outstanding in mass plantings, as a border perennial, or as groundcover sure to choke out most weeds.

Tolerant of heat, drought and poor soil, perennials do not come any easier or more hardy and striking. It's practically a gardening crime not to include this stately beauty amongst your perennials.

Sometimes misspelled as 'Goldstrum', the leaves are coarse, dark-green, lanceolate to ovate, and 3-6 inches long; its stem leaves are smaller, almost bract-like. From mid-July to October, the "gold storm" can blanket the tops of 18- to 30-inch tall plants.

'Goldsturm' works exceptionally well in both residential and commercial landscapes, because of its durability and dramatic visual impact. It attracts butterflies, makes an excellent cut flower, and adapts to a wide variety of soil conditions. Once established, it spreads rapidly. Deadheading is recommended to prolong the blooming season; this is one of the plants whose seeds drive birds crazy.

In the winter, its black stems and seed-heads add contrast and texture to the muted tans of other ornamental grasses. Though tolerant of poor soils and mild droughts, it grows best in well-drained, consistently moist soil.

Fabulous...Black Eyed Susan Pots
05/20/2021 By Massanutten Village, VA (VA)
Product reviewed: Black Eyed Susan {3 1/2 in. Pots min 25}

Each pot was very well rooted. The tops/leaves were long, healthy, and a nice, deep green. Each pot was moist when it arrived. And, the packaging kept the pots moist without damaging the leaves. Fabulous!!!

My plants arrived quickly and were well packed in a flat wrapped in Chinese newspaper and boxed.

My order arrived in great shape, I opened the package of 25 asap! I let them sit for a few hours to perk up before planting them. Today they look happy and ready to grow. My thanks to the staff for a great job packing and shipping.
