Description
R. hirta is an annual/biennial/perennial forb/herb of the Asteraceae family native to North America and Canada and introduced to Alaska. [2]
Distribution
R. hirta is found in all of the United States excluding Nevada and Arizona, all regions of Canada, and Alaska. [2]
Ecology
Habitat
R. hirta proliferates in fields and roadsides. [1] Specimens have been collected from loamy sands at edge od woodland, open woodland, moist roadsides, dry pine woods and fields, moist sandy peat of savannah, longleaf pine wiregrass savanna, saw palmetto flats, old fields, holding ponds, red clay soils, cedar glade, edge of rivers, wet boggy sites, prairie, mixed woods, creek bottoms, slash pine plantation, and other disturbed wet regions. [3] R. hirta responds negatively to soil disturbance by agriculture in Southwest Georgia.[4]
Rudbeckia hirta is an indicator species for the Clayhill Longleaf Woodlands community type as described in Carr et al. (2010).[5]
Phenology
R. hirta has been observed to flower from March to November with peak inflorescence in June. [6]
Seed dispersal
This species is thought to be dispersed by gravity. [7]
Fire ecology
R. hirta is not fire resistant, but has medium fire tolerance. [2]
Use by animals
Bees have been observed visiting this species. [8]
Conservation and Management
R. hirta is listed as a weedy or invasive species by the Southern Weed Science Society. [2]
