Rudbeckia hirta ‘Chim Chiminee’
Gloriosa Daisy |
USDA Zone: 5-9 |
Plant number: 1.455.110
Gloriosa Daisy hybrids are short-lived perennials, sometimes treated as annuals. Often these will survive a few winters, or at least self seed. This midsized strain features very unusual narrow or quilled petals surrounding a brown cone. Flowers are in shades of yellow, gold, orange and mahogany red. An outstanding cut flower. Removing faded blossoms regularly will greatly increase the flowering time. Seed heads have good winter interest, and can be used in dried arrangements. Fairly drought tolerant, once established. Wonderful in mixed containers.
