Plant Care & Growing Tips

Growing Black Eyed Susan ‘Goldilocks’ seeds is a rewarding experience, especially given their forgiving nature. For optimal growth, plant these easy to grow plants in an area that receives full sun, meaning at least 6 hours of direct sunlight per day. They are adaptable to a wide range of soil types, including clay, loam, topsoil, and mushroom compost, but prefer well-draining soil with a neutral pH. Watering should be medium; keep the soil consistently moist until germination and while plants are young, then reduce frequency once established, allowing the top inch of soil to dry out between waterings. These plants are annuals but can self-seed readily, often returning year after year. They thrive in varied climates across North America. Fertilization is generally not heavily required in good soil, but a balanced, slow-release fertilizer can encourage more vigorous blooms. Deadheading spent double bloom flowers will also promote more continuous flowering throughout the season. These Rudbeckia Goldilocks are relatively pest and disease resistant, making them a low-hassle addition to your garden.
