My rudbeckia are too! So much for collecting seed from them. I'll bury a few seed heads whole and see what comes up.

presumably they’ll be the same as the parent plant???anyone know?
mine are echinacea green twister which are pink and green (lovely!) so hoping that’s what I’ll get.

Also had it in sweet peas. I’ve had something else do it. Can’t remember what it was. My sweet peas are still doing it.
