If you love Maryland’s State Flower- the Black Eyed Susan, but are planting for a smaller space, the Rudbeckia Viette’s Little Suzy (Rudbeckia Fulgida) is the plant for you. The Little Suzy is a shorter, more compact version of the original Guldsturm selection.

The cutest little yellow daisies will bring color to your garden and sunshine on rainy days. The Little Suzy plants are very easy to grow and do not require much maintenance. Ideal conditions for these adorable perennials include full sun and well-drained soils. These free blooming dwarf perennials are drought tolerant and both deer and rabbit resistant. Little Suzy Black-eyed Susan has a significantly long bloom time spanning from July all the way through to October. Perfect for use in perennial borders, cottage gardens, mass plantings, and naturalized landscapes, these little blooms can make a big impact. As an added bonus, the Rudbeckia Viette’s Little Suzy’s flower also makes for a great, long-lasting cut flower.
