Rudbeckia fulgida var sullivantii 'Little Goldstar'

Black-eyed Susan

Plant Type: Perennial
FULL sun to MORNING sun/AFTERNOON shade

Golden yellow blossoms are held just above the short clump of rich green, bushy foliage. Very well branched scapes carry loads of flowers July through October. Over 80 flowers have been counted on a single plant, making this selection more floriferous than 'Goldsturm'. While 'Goldsturm' can stand waist-high in bloom, 'Little Goldstar' is much more compact.
