Large, fully double, double dahlia-like lemon-yellow flowers from July to
October with
contrasting green centres that turn yellow as they age. This tall but compact
form of coneflower is a perfect back-of-border plant. Rudbeckia laciniata is a
tall, stout plant with large, three- to five-lobed basal leaves and leafy
stems with three-lobed leaves. The stems are crowned by branched clusters of
clear yellow flowers with drooping rays and a conical green disk.
