Rudbeckia ‘Claire Orange’ is a cheerful, easy-care perennial that produces masses of large, golden daisy-like blooms on a compact, sturdy plant. Long-flowering and sun-loving, it thrives in hot Western Cape conditions and becomes drought tolerant once established — perfect for beds, borders and containers. It also makes an excellent cut flower.
Why you’ll love it:
• Bright, golden blooms for months
• Compact, tidy growth habit
• Drought tolerant once established
• Ideal for beds, borders and pots
• Excellent cut flower
Planting & Care:
Plant in full sun with well-drained soil. Water regularly while establishing, then ease off as the plant becomes more drought-hardy. Feed lightly in spring for vigorous growth and continuous flowering. Deadhead spent blooms to keep the colour coming.
