  • Description

  • Notes

'Goldsturm' may be the most popular rudbeckia and its no wonder, with its long season of bloom and vivid color. Exceptional large flowers (3 to 5 inches across) bloom on sturdy stems from mid-summer into early fall. The petals are a deep yellow, and they surround a prominent dark brown center. An excellent cut flower, leave some behind for the birds, that greatly appreciate the seed well into the winter months. Foliage is lance-like to oval and deep green. Grows about 24 to 36 inches tall and wide. Use in a perennial border, cottage garden, meadow or naturalized area.
