description for "Coneflowers: Rudbeckia hirta"
Rudbeckia is among the showiest and most carefree plants of the summer garden. No sunny garden should be without these reliable, long-flowering plants. Attractive foliage adds to their desirability. All species in this genus are native to North America--they have no serious pest or disease problems. Easily grown in most any garden soil. One of the heaviest-flowering and most familiar of all sun-loving wildflowers. The flowers are large and showy. Grows well in almost any soil. -- edited by dtd pbcouchman
