Rudbeckia 'Summerina Orange'

Rudbeckia Summerina Orange is an intergeneric cross that combines the cheerful appearance of rudbeckia with the hardiness of echinacea.

Also known as black eyed Susan, this perennial boasts large orange flowers that last from mid-summer through autumn. The daisy-like blooms take on a rusty hue as they near the copper brown centres, creating a striking floral display. Rudbeckia flowers are attractive to wildlife, bringing bees, butterflies and birds to the garden. Deadhead spent flowers to promote a second flush later in the season.

Rudbeckia Summerina Orange makes a great addition to flower beds and borders. They are also well suited to containers and are an excellent choice for brightening patios and terraces.

Like all herbaceous perennials, black eyed Susan dies back below ground at the end of the growing season. It spends the winter underground, safe from harsh temperatures and blossoms back to life in spring. Prune spent foliage at the end of autumn or the beginning of spring before new growth emerges.
