Rudbeckia 'Enchanted Velvet Flame'

A semi-double, maroon-red Rudbeckia with a chocolate cone. Rudbeckia 'Enchanted Velvet Flame' is an easy red to place in the garden, re-invigorating mid-summer borders with rich colour just when they are beginning to flag and continuing to flower for months.

Rudbeckias are one of the most useful of garden annuals, combining distinctive looks, robustness and a very long flowering period. The semi-double flowers are up to 10cm (4") in diameter and held on sturdy, weather-proof stems above neat mounds of foliage that do not overcrowd neighbouring plants. Flowering non-stop from July to October, the nectar-rich blooms are loved by bees and butterflies, making them great for wildlife-friendly gardens. Rudbeckia ‘Enchanted Velvet Flame' is a lovely choice for planting in bold groups throughout beds and borders, or filling patio pots. The eye-catching blooms also make a useful cut flower for a vase indoors. A short-lived perennial, best treated as an annual. Height: 50cm (20”). Spread: 45cm (18”).

Plant height and spread is seasonal therefore we list by pot size rather than a defined plant size. The height and spread of the plant delivered will vary depending on the season, meaning arrival images are an indication only.
