Description
The Rudbeckia 'Cappuccino' is a perennial plant cultivated as an annual or biennial, known for its ease of cultivation. In the garden, it will not last more than 2 to 3 years, but it easily self-seeds.
Originally from the central United States, the Rudbeckia hirta is also known as Rudbeckia gloriosa.
The Rudbeckia gloriosa 'Cappuccino is distinguished by its medium height of 80cm (32in), slightly shorter than other varieties of the species (which reach 100cm (39in)), and its abundant flowering in orange-yellow with bronze reflections, reminiscent of the colour of coffee.
The foliage consists of a tuft of basal lanceolate leaves, toothed, dark green, 5 to 10 cm (2 to 4in) long, from which robust and branched floral stems emerge. The stems bear narrower and somewhat oval-shaped cauline leaves.
The flowers of rudbeckias are large solitary daisies (heads) with a prominent black centre and an orange-yellow corolla with bronze reflections, marked with a darker disk in the centre. The long petals regularly arranged around the flower's heart give it a diameter of about 15 cm (6in). The large number of flowers, renewing from July to October, forms a wave-like mass of flowers swaying in the wind. This mass provides a source of fresh flowers for making bouquets.
At the end of the summer season, the orange-yellow petals fade and fall off, while the centre of the flowers dries and becomes woody. Once again, the flowers can be picked and incorporated into a dried bouquet.
Hardy, the Rudbeckia hirta Cappuccino prefers sunny or partially shaded locations. It prefers a rich, heavy, and moist soil, but above all, well-drained.
An ecological asset: Throughout the summer, the nectar-rich flowers of Rudbeckias attract pollinating insects and butterflies to your garden. It's a great way to improve your garden's ecosystem and promote fruit and vegetable production in your garden. In autumn, you can admire the constant ballet of birds that come to feed on the mature seeds they find in the dried flower heads.

Planting and care
Before sowing the rudbeckia, place your seeds in the vegetable compartment of your refrigerator for 4 weeks. This will break the seed's dormancy and improve your sowing's success.
Sow the seeds from February to April in a seed tray. Use a good quality compost that you will sieve on the surface to bind the seed to its substrate. Before sowing, gently press down the compost with a board. Sow your seeds by broadcasting. Cover the seeds by sprinkling compost on top or using vermiculite, gently press down and water generously with a fine rain. Place your seed tray in a well-lit area, without direct sunlight, at a temperature of 20°C (68°F) to 25°C (77°F). Lower the temperature at night to 18°C (64.4°F) to create a beneficial alternation for germination.
The seeds will germinate in 10 to 21 days. When the seedlings are manageable, transplant them into 7cm (3in) pots. Keep the compost moist but not excessively during growth. Then, 15 days before their final planting, start gradually acclimating them to a temperature of 15°C (59°F).
By the end of May or early June, the temperature in the garden will be warm enough to plant your young plants. Choose a sunny location. Add a good shovel of compost to each planting hole. Space your plants 30 cm (12in) apart.
Regularly remove faded flowers to maintain their beauty and promote repeat flowering.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
