My Rudbekia is sooooo dramatic!!!

[Beautifulbracelet]

I’m so fed up of it. She wants watering all the blumin time and if I don’t she literally looks dead as a dodo- wilting all over………..pft!!

Be grateful for what you have, mine got eaten by slugs!

Slugs don’t touch my rudbeckias - isn’t that weird? In less dry years I have plenty of slugs too. Even self seeded baby rudbeckias get left alone.

OP, mine sometimes look a bit droopy on very hot (heatwave) days but they perk up once it cools down. They seem to like heavier soil and if you don’t have that, abandon it! Life’s too short for finicky plants imo!

@CortadoPlease it could be snails, I haven’t caught them in the act, they also munched my eupatorium. What with also having to remove my fancy grasses ( the cat was eating them and then having to get them removed at the vet when they got stuck), my attempt at prairie style planting is not going well.
