There are not many woodland flowers that will reach the height of this coneflower. Its bright yellow flowers and relatively late bloom time compared to many spring-blooming woodland flowers make it a wonderful addition to your shade or semi-shade planting. Its preference is for part shade, but will grow in full sun if the soil holds moisture well. Wild Golden Glow is rhizomatous and can be aggressive so may not be suitable for small landscape plantings.
Rudbeckia laciniata is also referred to by its Cherokee name Sochan. The spring basal leaves are a traditional Cherokee food. Other common names in use include Cut-leaved Coneflower, Cutleaf Coneflower, Green-headed Coneflower, and Tall Coneflower.
