There is no more familiar summer plant than Black Eyed Susan and no plant more essential to the native landscape. Fulgida is a slightly lesser known selection that 'Goldsturm' but it brings so much more to the garden. Fulgida is slightly smaller that 'Goldsturm' as are its flowers. Of course, we are splitting hairs here...Fulgida's bloom is still big and, even better, it shows its golden rayed, deep brown coned flowers far longer than 'Goldsturm'. Fulgida begins to bloom in July and is still ravishing in October when 'Goldsturm' is looking to hibernate meaning there are farm more blooms for nectar seeking native butterflies and far more seed on spent flowers to keep you native birds fed and happy. Use this easy to grow, drought resistant beauty in sunny area and in groups for breathtaking summer color
