Hi I have grown some Rudbeckia (Gloriosa Daisy) and want to know if they are perennial or annual. Having looked up many sites some say perrennial, some say usually grown as an annual, some say annual. Which is it?

I'm afraid it's more complicated than that - some Rudbeckias are true perennials, some are sold as annuals (for example, R 'Golden Brown') but may come through the winter (mine did, even though we had -10 last winter).
Do you know which Rudbeckia species you have? That will help work out if its annual/perennialGrowing in the Garden of England

These are the ones

It says usually grown as an annual which makes me think these could be perennial in the right situation. If they are just annual I won't bother withem as I prefer a plant and forget type of flower bed.

I think the only way would be to suck it and see......or have a look around gardens in your area and see if anyone has the same plant and knock on the door and ask!!!

I have loads of Rudbeckias that I have had for years, but I musts say that I mulch them heavily as I do like them. I also have a Chocolate Cosmos that I have had in the same spot for seven years and is now a huge plant with about a hundred flowers open at a time - I intend to split it next spring - I put about a foot of shredded mulch over this each Autumn.
