Product Description

Black Eyed Susan ‘Indian Summer’
Rudbeckia hirta

One of the largest flowering varieties, this semi-double giant produces blooms that range from 4 to 7 inches across. The school bus yellow petals are beautifully accented with a clear black eye, and ‘Indian Summer’ makes a wonderful addition to summer bouquets.

Details:
Plant type: annual
Height: 36-48”
Site: full sun
Days to maturity: 100-120 days
Plant spacing: 9”
Pinch: not necessary
Approx seeds per packet: 50

How to Grow:
Start seed indoors in trays 8-10 weeks before last frost; transplant out after all danger of frost has passed.

Harvesting/Vase Life:
Harvest when flowers are beginning to open, and expect a vase life of 7-10 days. Rudbeckias are notorious for making their water murky. To combat this and extend their vase life, add a few drops of bleach to the water.

Once an order has been placed, we cannot add or subtract items. If you would like additional items not included in your original order, please place a new order. We are unable to combine separately placed orders.
