Common Name: Black-Eyed Susan

Description:
Rudbeckia 'Sunbeckia Laura' is a striking and vibrant perennial known for its extra-large, golden-yellow flowers with a rich, reddish-brown centre. This variety is bred for its long-lasting blooms, offering continuous colour from late spring through to autumn. It thrives in Melbourne’s climate, preferring a sunny position with well-drained soil, though it can tolerate part shade. Highly drought-tolerant once established, it is easy to care for and resistant to common pests and diseases. Its compact, bushy growth habit makes it ideal for garden beds, borders, and pots. 'Sunbeckia Laura' is a magnet for pollinators, attracting bees and butterflies, making it an excellent addition to wildlife-friendly gardens.
