Description
Butterflies are attracted to Rudbeckia hirta when planted in large color-masses.
Traditional Native American medicinal uses
The roots but not the seedheads of Rudbeckia hirta can be used much like the related Echinacea purpurea to boost immunity and fight colds, flu and infections.
It is also an astringent when used in a warm infusion as a wash for sores and swellings.
The Ojibwa people used it as a poultice for snake bites and to make an infusion for treating colds and worms in children.
The plant is also diuretic and was used by the Menominee and Potawatomi peoples.
Juice from the roots has been used as drops for earaches.
Nutritional parts
Certain parts of the plant contains anthocyanins a class of antioxidant with several known health benefits.
Cautions
As with any wild plant, it is usually recommended to research carefully before consuming as not all parts of the plant may be edible and to avoid mis-identification with other plants that may look similar to the Black eyed Susan.
It is widely recommended always to consult one's doctor before taking any medicinal herb.
With any herb approved by a doctor for use, it is widely agreed that recommended dosages and preparation procedures should always be followed.
The species is also known to be toxic to cats when ingested.
The black-eyed Susan was designated the state flower of Maryland in 1918. In this capacity it is used in gardens and ceremonies to celebrate, memorialize and show affection for the state of Maryland and its people.
