Rudbeckia triloba
Rudbeckia triloba | thin-leaf coneflower
Taller than other more commonly-grown Rudbeckias, and with smaller flowers, what’s the point? This is the Rudbeckia you want if you love cut flowers! A biennial or short-lived perennial, this species begins flowering in summer and keeps going until frost. Flowers are produced at the ends of many-branched, erect stems, producing airy sprays of cheerful golden flowers with dark centers. Grows 2-5’ tall and wide. Prolific self-seeder and good for naturalizing.
This species has a native range that includes New York and most of the Eastern U.S., but not New England.
