Mr. William Falconer,the best authority on plants in this country, says of it: " When I saw the couble-flowering form of Kud^eckia in bloom in your grounds 1 was amazed, for notwithstanding my long and intimate acquaintance with plants I had never before seen a double-flowered Rudbeckia, and I was delighted with the fulness and gorgeousness of the blossoms and their clear, bright yellow color. You gave me a plant, and it was set out in good garden ground. It grew vigorously, and threw up strong, branching flower st ms six feet high, laden with sheaves ot golden blossoms as large as fair Chrysanthemums, and all having an elegant, graceful appearance, without any stiffness in habit or blossom. Many eminent florists and amateurs have seen it here, and all admired it. As cut flowers the blossoms last well. In fine, I unhesitatingly re- gard it as the mos* desirable introduction among hardy perennials since we got Clematis ; It is the most effective flowering plant for August and September in cultivation.
