Rudbeckia ‘American Gold Rush’


Black-eyed Susan

 USDA Zone: 4-9

Plant number: 1.455.220


This Black-eyed Susan is destined to be the new staple for landscapes since it appears to be resistant to the Septoria leaf spot. It produces thinner and hairier leaves and shows no signs of the fungus even in wet, humid conditions. Dome-like golden yellow flowers with black centers are produced heavily from July to September, with some colour until frost. Attracts butterflies songbirds and bees. Brought to the market from Brent Horvath of Intrinsic Perennial Gardens. USPP#28498: unlicensed propagation prohibited.
