Rudbeckia 'American Gold Rush'
Choose American Gold Rush Coneflower if you want a bold yellow perennial that fills in fast and resists leaf spot; the tradeoff is it is not the best pick where deer feed regularly.
| Category | Grade | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Landscape Impact | A- | The deep yellow flowers give a border a clear summer focal point without needing a large shrub footprint. |
| Growth Rate | A | This is a fast grower and should fill its spot quicker than many slower clumping perennials. |
| Maintenance | B | It is not fussy, but deadheading helps rebloom and tired stems should be cleaned up. |
| Deer Resistance | B+ | Deer tend to leave this alone, though hungry deer may sample it where pressure is heavy. |
| Small Space Fit | B+ | Its compact habit works well in smaller borders and containers, though it still needs room to mound out. |
| Screening Value | F | This is a flowering perennial, not a plant for privacy, blocking views, or winter cover. |
At PGNE, we'd typically recommend this for customers who want dependable yellow summer color without choosing a taller, looser perennial. Give it open space, average moisture, and plan to deadhead if rebloom matters.
| Mature Height | 2 ft |

I went up there today from Quincy MA to pick up two Blue Wichita Junipers and they were absolutely beautiful. Thank you, Chris and everybody from Pro Growers of New England!
The plants are beautiful and all 13 were consistent in height and width. And at a fraction of the cost of other garden centers. Having the team that delivered them do the planting was one of the best values I can think of. They did a great job from start to finish and even helped me with my watering system which they didn’t have to do!
Very nice
Guys installed for me as well
Great job
Huge selection and fast delivery. All plants arrived in great condition.
Great prices and Unbelievable selection of big and small trees, shrubs, and flowering perennials! Nicest folks to work with. And local delivery is awesome! First time purchasing from this company, , and have already told friends, neighbors and family. The owner Chris is professional, knowledgeable, and yet laid back in a most friendly way. Mags in the office will help with any details. My all time BEST garden purchase EVER!
Bought 8-10 ft and all were barely 8 if you count the container. Trees are thin and lots of brown branches and broken branches due you thrown in box truck no wrapping or anything. Hoping they survive and thicken up quick…
