Rudbeckia x hirta hybrida 'Cherokee Sunset' (HHA)

This really special , award winning variety was bred by Thompson and Morgan. The 3-4ins double and semi double blooms are held by strong stems on vigorous, branching plants which flower freely from mid summer well into autumn. The colour range is spectacular! Gleaming shades of yellow, orange, gold, bronze and mahogany will create a stunning effect in beds and borders. We trialled this variety in our own garden last year and were really impressed by them. They shrugged off a slug attack and were undeterred by heat, drought or torrential rain. They began to bloom in mid July and were still going strong in mid October.(60-75cm/24-30ins)

Sowing Instructions

Sow indoors on the surface of moist seed compost. Apply a very fine sprinkling of compost but do not cover the seeds completely. Seal inside a polythene bag and leave in a warm position until germination takes place. When seedlings are large enough to handle, transplant into 3ins pots. When well grown, harden off gradually and plant out 12ins apart after last frosts.
