Default Rudbeckia Maxima question


Hello All,

I've been growing this for many years now in two locations in the same long
bed, and this is the first time it failed to flower. In fact, it looks
downright unhappy. We had an unusually wet spring and mild summer.

I'm thinking of dividing it and trying pieces in other area. Or should I
just leave it alone this year and see what happens?

thanks

Lift a few plants and use them elsewhere, it's no problem. Sometimes
thining out the clumps helps to bring back blooms.
