Seven Seeds Farm Rudbeckia
Best vibrant blooms for creating a distinctive garden display.
These blooms trade the typical yellow daisy look for a moody, deep burgundy that feels surprisingly sophisticated in a garden border. They aren't the longest-lived perennials you'll plant, but their drought tolerance and ability to thrive in poor soil make them an incredibly low-maintenance way to add dramatic color to your landscape.
