Rudbeckia triloba

(Brown-eyed Susan, Lobed Coneflower)




2004-05-22 :Purchased as 1 gallon plant from Mahoney's. (plantsdatabase)
2004-05-29 :Planted in front bed.
2004-06-01 :Some of the leaves look crispy. Too much sun? I removed a couple.
2004-06-09 :Plant looks alive despite crispy leaves. Some of the leaves are laying on the mulch but the plant looks ok, I think. Maybe it was a bit wilty from the sudden 95F day?
