Rudbeckia triloba 'Prairie Glow' - 2026

Rudbeckia triloba 'Prairie Glow' is a vigorous, clump-forming perennial with deeply lobed green foliage and cheerful golden-yellow daisy-like flowers with dark brown central cones. Blooming from midsummer into early autumn, it provides long-lasting colour and texture in borders, naturalistic plantings, and wildlife-friendly gardens. Its upright, branching stems offer structural interest, while the flowers attract pollinators such as bees and butterflies, adding both ornamental and ecological value.

It thrives in full sun in fertile, moist but well-drained soil and is low to medium-maintenance, benefiting from occasional deadheading to extend flowering. Non-native to the UK, it is prized for its reliable blooms, long flowering season, and suitability for naturalistic plantings, mixed borders, or meadow-style gardens.
