A classic American Beauties garden favorite, triloba blooms like its life depended on it throughout the summer months with waves of yellow rayed, deep brown centered daisies. This Black Eyed Susan loves full sun and tolerates drought while still performing at its peak from June into September with flowers that drive nectar feeding butterflies to a feeding frenzy. Even spent flowers are wildlife magnets with finches and sparrows chowing down on the huge amounts of seed created making a garden with this plant even more colorful. Plant it in groups at the back of the garden and prepare for the easiest garden color show you've ever planted.
