What are plugs? Plugs are plants grown in 72-cell trays; each soil plug is 1.6” wide x 3.2” deep. They are a great option for planting large gardens. We plant all of our own projects with plugs.
Orange Coneflower—also known as Black Eyed Susan—is a favorite of perennial gardens for its large, deep green leaves and yellow-orange flowers. Orange Coneflower slowly spreads to form large clumps. It blooms later than most yellow flowers, making it a perfect companion for Blazing Stars, New England Aster and Bottle Gentian.

Design Tips
We prefer Orange Coneflower (Rudbeckia fulgida) over the common Black Eyed Susan (Rudbeckia hirta) because common Black Eyed Susan is short-lived and spreads a lot by seeds, while Orange Coneflower it long-lived and stays in place. It spreads slowly by underground rhizomes (roots), creating thick mats of leaves and flowers. Plant with Meadow Blazing Star, New England Aster, or Bottle Gentian for a nice color combination in late summer.
