Black-Eyed Susan is a charming climber that will cover your fence, pergola, or trellis in a waterfall of yellow-orange flowers with a stunning black "eye" in the center. It blooms profusely throughout the summer and into autumn, grows quickly, and is very easy to cultivate. The English name, "Black-Eyed Susan," perfectly describes its unique appearance. Perfect for creating a colorful and cheerful corner on a balcony or in the garden!

🌱 Growing Conditions
  • Light: Full sun - at least 6 hours a day. It will bloom less in partial shade.
  • Watering: Regular and consistent. Likes soil that is moist but not soggy. In hot summer - every day or two.
  • Support: Needs a structure to climb - trellis, fence, wires, or pergola.
  • Temperature: Loves heat 18-30°C. Sensitive to frost - in Israel, it is grown as an annual.
  • Soil: Rich, well-draining, with compost.
  • Fertilization: Fertilizer for flowering once every two weeks during the growing season.

  • Curled or dry leaves: Lack of water, especially on hot days.
  • Plant not climbing: Needs to be guided and tied to support at the beginning.

Pro Tip

Collect seeds for next year! At the end of the season, small seed pods form. Let them dry on the plant, collect, and store in a dry, cool place. In early spring, plant them indoors and move them outside after the last frost. This way, you can enjoy them year after year for free!
