Description

'American Gold Rush' features a slightly more compact form than 'Goldstrum' as well as incredible flower power and outstanding resistance to Septoria leaf spot, the scourge of Rudbeckia. That means beautiful, compact, blemish-free plants that will bloom from summer into early fall. A perfect plant for massing and for containers.
