Dean,
I didn't take you wrong :-) There's been discussions lately about how
plant info can vary from one source to another thus making it
interesting that your info was different from mine. I'm curious now as
to what the flower will look like. I'm new to gardening and this is the
first Rudbeckia I've ever had.
Right now the bud is about one inch in diameter. Doesn't necessarily
mean anything, though, since my Gailardia grandiflora had the same size
buds. They have about one inch centers and overall flower size of around
3 inches.
Well got to run, leaving in one hour. Will update when the flowers
arrive.
