Rudbeckia hirta 'Enchanted Cosmic Eye'

Rudbeckias prefer evenly moist, well drained soil. Water well after planting, then aim to water well and occasionally, rather than little or often. They cannot be left cold and wet through the winter period.

Rudbeckias are not typically picky, once established they are great for all landscapes and are exceptionally low maintenance. They enjoy a full sunny spot.

Rudbeckia Enchanted Cosmic Eye will grow to a height of 45cm and spread of 30cm.

Feeding - Rudbeckia do not generally need feeding, in fact overfertilizing can cause weakness. A general purpose slow release granular fertilizer can be used, maybe twice a year.
Pruning - Deadhead by cutting back faded flowers, this will encourage further growth.
Propagation - These will go to seed naturally in the garden and propagate themselves. Division is good every 3 to 4 years, the older plants with thank you, as they can become overcrowded.

At Newlands Nursery we grow and sell plants in a variety of different sizes, from small starter plants up to planted containers. 

We know it can be tricky to picture the size of each plant. This page gives you an idea of the size of the plants we are sending out.

Please keep in mind that plants vary from one season to the next. The size of the plant refers to the pot or plug it is grown in, rather than the height of the plant, unless specifically mentioned on the plant page. 

	Starter Plant (Plug Plant) Plug Size: 2cm by 4cm. Our most popular size. This is often the most economical way of buying plants and is a great way to get a head start on the season. Generally this size is best to be potted up before planting out.
	Jumbo Plug Plug Size: 6cm by 7cm. A fantastic alternative to a 9cm pot and saves on plastic too. The plants in this size are well established and give you a head start. This size is perfect for planting straight into containers and baskets as well as the garden.
	9cm pot Pot size: 9cm by 9-10cm. This size hold some well established plants, some of which maybe around 1 year old. We sell most of our ranges in this size and most of the plants sold in this size, are established enough to be planted straight outside.
	13cm or 1 litre pot Pot size: 12-13cm by 12-15cm Currently our largest size of plant, with the exception of our planted containers. Many of our House Plants are available in this size, as well as some special collections and varieties.
