Hello. I have these flowers that started in my garden (some people in the area have them) What is their name some are more red or dark pink How can I multiply them. They have many now that have the head dried up. Are these the seeds (although wet in the rain now) how can I replant these seeds in autumn? I am thinking cutting them off and burrying them the other areas? I want to make them grow in additional other areas. Thanks for your help. Vic
It is Rudbeckia hirta, a somewhat short-lived plant that is generally propagated by seeds. Do not bury the seeds, light helps germination, so just cover it really slightly. Here, they are generally sown in spring though, after last frost (but of course can be started somewhat earlier indoors).
