    If you soil is always dry, even though you are watering, it may be to light to hold moisture and nutrients for the vine.
    Always use a good quality potting soil for container planting.

    Daily water or even twice a day in hot spells is generally needed.

    There are 3 main causes of plants growing horizontally. One is that they don't get enough sun and so they stretch sideways to try to reach it. The other is too much fertilizer which may cause rapid and weak growth. The last reason is the easiest to correct; the plant needs water. Coneflowers like full sun , at least 6-8 hours daily. Since your plant doesn't look dry and you have lots of blooms, my guess is that they want more sunlight.

    I would wait until your plant is done blooming. Moving it into the ground in the fall is a good time.

    It is very helpful to the plant to deadhead it at least once per season, although you can do this more times if needed. This article will help: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/ornamental/flowers/black-eyed-susan/deadheading-black-eyed-susans.htm

    Given your growing zone, I feel that the vine may be just beginning to wind down for the winter; in colder zones, this vine will be more of an annual and not likely to winter over.

    The leaves also look like they are exhibiting the look of iron chlorosis.

    You could save seeds from your plant to plant next season!
