Rudbeckia hirta ‘Cherokee Sunset’ is a biennial or short-lived perennial, usually grown as an annual, boasting impressive double or semi-double flowers, up to 3-4 in. wide (7-10 cm), in a bright mix of yellow, orange, bronze and mahogany. Blooming profusely from early summer to frost, it provides weeks of eye-catching color. The flowers are produced in such quantities that they almost cover the bushy bright green foliage. An outstanding cut flower, its seed heads have good winter interest unless they are used in dried arrangements.
