Rudbeckia

Okay, you know these flowers as black-eyed-susans or coneflowers. They are perennials that start coming back late in the fall. But, since everything seems to be rushing ahead (weather-wise) these days; here they are already, drawing focus in my backyard with their deep-yellow brilliance. Welcome back Rudbeckia, I hope you’re enjoying the heat and humility. And, of course, the water I lavish daily upon your conic heads.
