Re: Unknown Rudbeckia


Chris,

This looks exactly like the one I have. The label that was with it when
I bought it last year says it is Rudbeckia hirta 'Indian Summer'. 

When this thread started 3 weeks ago I was asked to update the group as
to the bloom size once it bloomed. Well, here's the update. The label
says 6 - 9 inch blooms, mine are 5 1/4 inches across. It is currently
29" tall (label says 3 - 3 1/2' tall). On my one plant there are 5
blooms fully open, a sixth one about half open, and another 4 at the bud
stage.
