All very well is the advice to cut back decaying and gone-over plants, but my penstemons, rudbeckia, etc are still nice and green. |
In March, plant sunny beds with seed or transplants of marigolds, zinnias, gomphrena and rudbeckia, and brighten shady spots with impatiens and caladiums. |
I owe to the kindness of Professor Oliver a sketch of a species of rudbeckia? |
As their blooms begin to fade, attention is drawn to the daisy-like flowers of my rudbeckia, which then becomes the predominant focal point. |
About two feet behind this border, a row of rudbeckia grows like a tall hedge. |
Years ago someone planted in my head the idea that rudbeckia were unforgivably brash. |
