cherry brandy seeds

14 years ago

Hi - does anyone know if Rudbeckia 'Cherry Brandy' comes true from seed? I collected seeds but am hesitant to offer them for trade because I don't know the likelihood that they'll come true. Thanks in advance for any info!

Most Rudbeckia hirta will vary from seed. You will probably have some reds, but yellow, orange, and brown came from my all yellow plants this summer.

My variations from seed.

You can trade them, but let people know they are collected, and not purchased. It may make a difference to some, not to others. I like all rudbeckias and from seed, there is so much variation.

Cherry brandy - flowers?
Q

The Cherry Brandy plants purchased from the greenhouse have blossomed a nice, deep red color that I am happy with. They probably kept the plants well fed. The plants I started from seed are just starting to blossom now. One of them is that baby food orange color. This one orangy plant I set into the pines which is very acid soil. I am wondering if the soil conditions affect the flower color a great deal on these particular bloomers. I am watching my front garden which is a much richer soil and not acid. This will give me a small comparison. Anyone else notice this? I am just wondering if I am noticing a trend.

Hey if it was me, I would love to try them.... so I would say send them in for the trade. Most of us know we may get something a little different.

I too have never met a Rud I did not like. (not yet)
