Rudbeckia nitida (Shiny Coneflower) only about 7 ft this year as I moved it last autumn.

I love these. The shape is so appealing.

Yes they are

That's a wonderful plant. I wish I had room for one. I had it in the previous garden, and it always got huge. It's a very attractive plant though ...

Only 7 foot,Denise ?? That sounds plenty big enough to me ! Lol..lovely plants..mine is only a small one called 'Early Bird' and it's a bit disappointing,as I expected it to have bushed out a bit more, now in it's 2nd year..only have about 6 blooms on it..

It was 10ft plus last year Bloomer. It was 50p in a plant charity plant sail year before last.

I had no idea they could get so big !..some 50p worth :o)

Neither did, I but it was like topsy it just grew and grew and that was after the slugs had a real go at it.

Methinks you will need scaffolding next year:o)

Ha ha, now thats an idea as I could use it to get to the top of the rose arch too.

see ? two good reasons. Lol...and don't forget the hard hat ! :o)

I wont

It is HB and the slugs love it too

Naturally - so do you!!

Ha ha
