Noted for its good disease-resistance, Rudbeckia triloba 'Blackjack Gold' is a bushy biennial or short-lived perennial boasting a profusion of vibrant golden yellow flowers, 2 in. across (5 cm), adorned with a contrasting dark chocolate cone. Blooming profusely from midsummer to frost, they rise atop dark red, sturdy stems and provide fantastic and long-lasting color in the landscape. Pollinator-friendly, the blossoms attract butterflies and seed-eating songbirds during the fall and winter. The basal rosette of roughly hairy leaves persists through the winter, creating an attractive winter ground cover. Extremely easy to grow, this plant may naturalize easily and remain in the garden thanks to its ability to freely self-seed. Terrific in the late season garden.
