We’ve got our eye on this gorgeous wildflower this week…. friends, meet this ray of sunshine, Black Eyed Susan (aka Rudbeckia), our
Known for their bright yellow flowers with a dark brown or black center, these daisy-like whimsical blooms are relatively easy to grow, attract pollinators like butterflies and bees, and are drought-tolerant.
If you’re looking for some summer to fall color, a little height (typically 1-3 feet), and a return visit the following year, this perennial checks the boxes.
Whether you plant in your garden for a splash of brightness, cut stems for a bouquet or arrangement, or want to give your birds and wildlife a place to nestle, Black-Eyed Susan provides so many benefits.
With a garden full of color, you’ll be pleased you’re doing your part for the pollinator world! 🐝🦋🌎
