Rudbeckia 'Black-Eyed Susan' Seeds

Perennial. Showy. 2″ – 4″ daisy-like flowers with bright yellow petals, and dark center. Blooms over a long period — at least 8 weeks. Black-Eyed Susan is a short-lived perennial which may come back for a second or third year, but is often treated as an annual. Re-seeds itself and can be used in “naturalized” wildflower areas. A must-have for any garden, the black-eyed susan never goes out of fashion. Extremely low-maintenance, and deer-resistant too.
