Plant the Goldsturm Black-eyed Susan in full sun, but it will tolerate a little partial shade if it has too. It grows in literally any kind of soil, from clay to sand and acid to alkaline. It should be well-drained, but that is the only requirement. It tolerates poor, rocky soils, yet enjoys rich garden beds too. Resistant to pests or diseases and untroubled by deer or rabbits, it is a reliable low-maintenance addition to any garden. Space plants 18 inches apart for dense coverage within a few years. Trim old flower stems and leaves in late fall – you can even use a string trimmer or mower if you have it over a large area.
