Description
(Rudbeckia) Rudbeckia Sunbeckia® Graffiti Scarlet is a bold and eye-catching perennial known for its vibrant scarlet-red petals and dramatic dark central cone. Each daisy-like bloom can reach up to 6 inches across, creating a brilliant display of color from mid-summer through fall. The rich red tones bring warmth and intensity to garden beds, borders, and containers, standing out beautifully against green foliage.
Sunbeckia 'Graffiti Scarlet' thrives in full sun and well-drained soil. Its compact, upright form grows 18–24 inches tall and wide, making it ideal for small garden spaces, front-of-border plantings, and mixed containers. The sturdy stems hold the large flowers upright, even in wind or rain, and make them great for cut flower arrangements.
This variety is both deer and rabbit resistant and shows moderate drought tolerance once established. It's also a magnet for pollinators like bees and butterflies. Minimal maintenance is needed deadhead spent blooms to encourage extended flowering and cut back in early spring for fresh growth. Graffiti Scarlet offers vibrant color, strong garden performance, and attracts pollinators.
