Description
- One of the cheeriest rudbeckias you’ll ever meet, the flowers of ‘Lemon SmileyZ’ offer a shot of turbocharged positivity straight into your horticultural veins (okay, not literally, but you get the point…)
- Canary yellow petals with a honey-coloured halo surround a yellow-green central cone (in other words, it’s a plant with a whole lotta yellow!)
- Laughably easy to grow and long-flowering, this is an excellent choice for beginner gardeners whose fingers aren’t perhaps the full viridian shade of green just yet
- Plant alongside other rudbeckias in shades of red and orange and watch as your border is transformed from a bland patch of soil into an explosive patchwork of cheerful colours
- What’s all the buzz about? This plant, that’s what! Rudbeckias are recognised by the RHS as one of its Plants for Pollinators, so you can rely on varieties like ‘Lemon SmileyZ’ to readily encourage bees to your garden
