  • I used to think Rudbeckia wasn't worth growing, but now it's one of my favorite flowers blooming out in my garden. What's your favorite variety?
    I know it doesn't sound like I'm pronouncing the "D" in Rudbeckia... but I promise you, it's in there.

    I’m 9a in Florida. I ordered Cherokee Sunset and I’m hoping they germinate. I thought about trying to throw some in a tray outside to see if they’ll weather it out and grow there, and also doing some seed trays. We’ll see, though. I’m so nervous to waste any either way. 😅

      @@Jessie_D_83 I feel like they’re pretty hardy, I bet if you planted some seeds outside they’d come up in the spring! The cold helps them germinate. I actually planted some of my seeds in pots the other day! Try it out, let me know how it goes 💜

    I am a double bloom gal myself ❤. The love carries across all floral species! Have the double blooming morning glories by Baker Seeds? OH my!! My growing zone is the same 6a. I think that zonal changes seemed to have changed along the coastal edges of the US. The interior sections remained the same for the most part. I have blackeyed Susan everywhere and my hubs does not like it 😅
