    Really pretty, but where did you get such a short Sweet Coneflower (Rudbeckia subtomentosa)? Is it a cultivar? (Mine have to be 4′ IF they were not leaning:(

      These are leaning somewhat. And they are in a relatively dry spot where they don’t grow as tall. You are right — they can get very tall and are aggressive.
