Rudbeckia triloba
at Digging Dog
Three-Lobed Coneflower
Black-Eyed Susan
Named by Linnaeus in honor of his teacher Olaf Rudbeck, this North American genus includes 25 to 30 species, many of them famous summer, especially late season, bloomers. These selections are easy to grow, make fine cut flowers, and will brighten any border or naturalized meadow. Offering interest also in the late fall and winter, they combine well with Aster, Eupatorium, and grasses. Rudbeckia triloba 
A summertime show stopper, this floriferous Rudbeckia is a denizen of the Great Plains. At its base, the larger leaves are trilobed, forming a handsome bushy mass that gives way to more narrow upper leaves and openly branched, flowering stems.
Completely covered in glorious golden yellow petals circling jet black centers that fade to brown, Rudbeckia
triloba is a vivacious addition to the border with companions such as Aconitum ‘Arendsii’ and Pennisetum ‘Moudry’. Not as long-lived as other Rudbeckias, Three-Lobed Coneflower eventually wears itself out, but easily reseeds.
Blooms August–October. Size: 5'–6' high x 3'–4' wide; hardy to zone 5. Rudbeckia triloba (P-1147)
