Description
This mid-late summer blooming flower is a real gem. It takes harsh conditions and soils, and gives many long-stemmed, long-lasting cut flowers! It’s hard to find, so get to know about it so you know how and what to look for. And keep your eye out for it.
This plant has some pretty confusing common names; Golden Glow, Cut-leaf Coneflower, and Hortensia. But these are not specific enough. Rudbeckia laciniata is a cut-leaf coneflower, having leaves that are deeply cut and a cone for a center. Wild Golden Glow is the common name for that one.
