Rudbeckia 'Denver Daisy'

Gloriosa Daisy hybrids are short-lived perennials, sometimes treated as annuals. Often these will survive a few winters or at least self-seed. This midsized strain produces large golden-yellow daisies, the black cone surrounded by a big mahogany-red eye. Flowers for months on end on a compact, bushy plant.

An outstanding cut flower. Removing faded blossoms regularly will significantly increase the flowering time. Seed heads have good winter interest and can be used in dried arrangements. Fairly drought tolerant, once established. Excellent in mixed containers. Ernst Benary Seeds bred them to commemorate the 150th anniversary of Denver, CO.
