How to Grow
Rudbeckia 'Goldsturm' seeds are best started indoors from February to June to avoid late frosts, preferring a sunny position with well-drained soil for optimal flowering. Alternatively, sow outdoors once the frost risk has passed to enjoy their golden blooms in summer and autumn.
Sowing
Sow Rudbeckia Goldsturm seeds indoors in pots filled with seed compost, lightly covering them and keeping the soil consistently moist to encourage germination. This careful moisture management supports strong seedling development during the sowing period from February to June.
Growing
Once seedlings are large enough to handle, pot them on and grow in bright light before planting them outdoors in late spring. Space plants about 0.6 metres apart to accommodate their mature height and spread of 0.6 metres, ideally in 45 cm pots or garden beds where they can form sturdy clumps.
Plant care
Water Rudbeckia Goldsturm regularly during dry spells in their first growing season from July to October, reducing watering as plants establish due to their drought tolerance. Deadhead spent flowers throughout summer to encourage prolonged blooming and pick cut flowers when petals have just opened for best display.
