Individual native wildflower

Black-Eyed Susan

Bright yellow native blooms for bold drifts, meadow accents, and pollinator activity.

Black-Eyed Susan is one of the flowers people picture when they hear 'wildflower': bright yellow rays, dark centers, and a long season of cheerful color. Sow it in sunny drifts, meadow accents, or pollinator plantings when you want something familiar, useful, and hard to tire of.
