Highlights
- Vibrant flowers: Black Eyed Susan is known for its showy, bright yellow or orange flowers with dark centres that resemble a black eye. The flowers are often compared to those of a daisy, and they bloom in mid to late summer, adding a burst of colour to any garden or landscape.
- Drought tolerant: This plant is relatively low maintenance and can tolerate dry conditions, making it a great option for areas that receive little rainfall or have hot summers. Once established, it can survive with minimal watering.
- Attracts pollinators: Black Eyed Susan is a popular choice among gardeners looking to attract pollinators such as bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds. The flowers provide a good source of nectar and pollen, and the plant itself serves as a host for certain caterpillars.
Care Guide
Care Guide
- Watering: Black Eyed Susan needs regular watering during the first growing season to establish a deep, extensive root system. Once established, it can tolerate drought, but it is best to water it regularly during prolonged dry spells. Water the plant deeply once a week or whenever the soil is dry to the touch.
- Maintenance: It is a low-maintenance plant and does not require much attention. Keep an eye out for pests and diseases, and remove any diseased or damaged foliage promptly.
- Pruning: In-season pruning: Pinch back the tips of the plant when it reaches about 12 inches tall to encourage bushier growth and more blooms. End-of-season pruning: Cut back the plant to a few inches above the ground after the first frost in fall to tidy up the garden.
- (Optional):Fertilizer: Black Eyed Susan does not require much fertilizer, but you can apply a balanced fertilizer once a month during the growing season to promote healthy growth and blooms.
