Is this a subtle reference to the cannabis thread.

Along with the thread 'Doing away with the grass'  ;D

The bees love it though and it is so easy to pull up if you don't like it
When I get old I don't want people thinking
                      "What a sweet little old lady"........
                             I want em saying
                    "Oh Crap! Whats she up to now ?"

If you are wearing gloves... those square stems can give you a nasty cut... trust me..  ;D

What a wonderful show.   Gnash... Gnash.... I have tried growing Rudbekia over a number of years without success. I am now going to just give up...

Lovely. Rudbekias are one of my favorite late summer flowers. They are nice and bright and colourful and last for ages too.

The purple weed looks like verbena bonariensis. Wouldnt call it a weed. Used to have lots of it but lost most of it last winter.

Lovely! Planted two Rudbekias last year and both died, not sure what I did wrong (poss due to being planted in a shady spot)

Thanks Garden Assistant I have been trying to find out what that purple weed was for ages!

A weed!  How very dare you!  :o. Verbena bonariensis is one of my favourite plants and it does look great with the rudbeckia.

They look fab, I'll be growing some next year!
Do they make good cut flowers Saddad? Do you grow from cuttings or seeds?

I've just planted two small (non-flowered) rudbeckia Goldsturm. Do I need to cut them down to ground level for the winter?

  I sowed some Rudbekia seeds last Spring--  ashamed to say they stayed in thier seed tray

  looking sad and neglected,  got to them in the end and now have 8 pots of plants, all

  looking good.

  They are still out in the elements, do I leave them there, or do I need to fleece at all,

  --  they are in 4"   pots,

  With thanks,
Hertfordshire,   south east England
