Put this native perennial at the top of your list of "gotta get"s! No sun-loving plant can top black-eyed Susan for vigor, beauty, and beneficial garden presence. From the butterflies it brings in to the deer it turns away, Goldsturm is unbeatable!
From midsummer into fall, this bushy, well-branched little plant sets dozens upon dozens of 3-inch daisies, each with long, slender yellow gold petals around a dark brown cone. Pollinators flock to feast, first on the nectar of summer and then on the dried seeds of autumn. The blooms are terrific for cutting, but make such an alluring pool of gold in the sunny garden, you'll hate to part with even one!
And no plant is easier to grow. This black-eyed Susan stands up to heat, humidity, drought, poor soil, and other environmental stresses. It repels destructive pests and welcomes in beneficial bugs and pollinators. Diseases do not generally trouble it. It makes itself at home in just about any sunny spot with decent soil drainage.
Goldsturm was developed in Germany from the Native American wildflower. Its name means "gold storm," and that's just what it will deliver! Highly recommended for every garden!

A short-lived perennial that is often grown as an annual. Useful in borders, beds, for naturalizing, and as a fresh cut flower. This vigorous, thick-stemmed, multi-branching plant grows upright from 2-3 feet tall.

Hand Packed By Experienced Technicians
Park Seed has been handling and packing vegetable and flower seeds for 145 years, a history that has given us a great understanding of how each variety should be cared for and maintained throughout every step of theprocess, from collection to shipping.
When packing our seeds, the majority are actually done by hand (with extreme care!), and we often over-pack them, so you're receiving more than the stated quantity.
The Park Seed Gold Standard
Heirloom Seeds are open-pollinated -- they are not hybrids. You can gather and save heirloom seed from year to year and they will grow true to type every year, so they can be passed down through generations. To be considered an heirloom, a variety would have to be at least from the 1940's and 3 generations old (many varieties are much older -- some 100 years or more!).
Hybrid seed are the product of cross-pollination between 2 different parent plants, resulting in a new plant/seed that is different from the parents. Unlike Heirloom seed, hybrid seed need to be re-purchased new every year (and not saved). They usually will not grow true to type if you save them, but will revert to one of the parents they were crossed with and most likely look/taste different in some way.
