Abstract
Researches the effect of seed source on growth, flowering, and survival of Rudbeckia hirta at four sites in Florida. Growth, time to flowering, and number of flowers varied by site. Flower diameter was larger in a Texas seed source compared to Florida seed sources; however, plants from the Florida seed sources persisted longer under growing conditions in Florida.Suggested Citation
