Rudbeckia hirta, ‘Sahara’

On the seed sowing agenda today… Rudbeckia hirta, Sahara – My seeds are from Chiltern seeds (no reason as never ordered before from Chiltern but some seeds sell out pretty quickly and I was putting in an order from Chiltern at the time.

They should be sown 1 seed per pot but very teeny tiny seed and NOT covered – you could sow along side Eucalyptus (apparently) as similar conditions… watch this space 😛

General Information
