Where to Sow

On the surface of good free-draining seed compost in pots or trays. Cover with a very fine sprinkling of vermiculite or compost. Place in a propagator or a warm place at a temperature of 20-25°C until germination which usually takes 7-21 days. Do not exclude light as this helps germination.

What to do Next

Transplant seedlings when large enough to handle into pots or trays. Gradually acclimatize plants to cooler conditions for a few weeks before planting out after all risk of frost has passed, 30cm (12") apart.

Handy Tip

Rudbeckia are very weather resistant so are ideal for planting in an exposed or sheltered border.
