The report will have to wait till this fall, since all bloom best in late
summer.
Yes, fulgida is the right species for 'Goldstrum'
deamii- has yellow flowers and is a little taller than goldstrum
var. fulgida -- has yellow-gold flowers and blooms later.
A lot of the plants sold as 'goldstrum' are seed raised since its a seed
strain. The color is more a golden yellow compared to the others. I do not
like the shape of the flowers my self but they do bloom a lot. it' s full
name is Rudbeckia fulgida var. sullivantii 'Goldstrum'
the rudbeckia's are a great group of plants for sumer color and there are
some new ones coming onto the market mostly hybrides with in R. hirta
