Other Details | Rudbeckia is one of the most amazing flowers that a gardener can grow, although it is a bit tough to grow from seed and if the seeds are sown in spring it may not bloom the first year. The foliage of this plant has very hard bristle like hairs which may cause irritation to sensitive skin so caution must be taken. The flowers are very large upon large thick stems that can be used as a cut flower. Seeds come true. |
