The smouldering beauty of the mellow, burnt orange shades of each semi-double flower deepen as the season progresses. Rudbeckia hirta 'Enchanted Ember' supports a wide range of pollinating insects providing nectar-rich blooms from mid-summer to the first frosts.

An exceptional herbaceous perennial with excellent vigour, forming a well-branched plant that will fill a patio pot with ease.

Please note that the pot in the photograph is not supplied with the plants, but we have a wide and wonderful range on our website to choose from.


  • Garden care:
    Grow on under glass until all risk of frost has passed and they can then either be planted outside into a well-prepared bed, or used to fill decorative pots for the patio.

    Pinching out the growing tips will encourage them to become bushier, and feeding with a high-potash fertiliser at regular intervals throughout the summer will promote even more flowers to form.
