Black Eyed Susans are perennial in frost free climates, but grow well as summer annuals in colder climates. They're the ideal solution for quickly covering ugly wire fences, and the spectacular orange, yellow or cream flowers with their distinctive black centres are bright and cheerful.

Growing Information

How to Sow

Black-eyed Susan's tolerate everything but frost, so sow them once frost has passed. Sow seeds on moist potting medium and cover to no more than 10mm. When sowing in containers, a lighter covering works. Keep moist until germination.
