Rudbeckia hirta 'Enchanted Forest' is full of lime-green coloured blooms with a chocolate brown centre. These zingy green petals gradually deepen in colour as the summer season progresses.
Attractive to a wide range of pollinating insects, these eye-catching herbaceous perennials are a great choice for a wildlife garden. Grow them in patio pots, or plant them en masse in beds and borders.
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.

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.
