Photo #202: Rudbeckia

I've mentioned in other posts that I love perennials. Another of my favorite perennials is Rudbeckia. I love the bright yellow color with the black center, and it comes back every year, no matter how much I neglect it. The Rudbeckia just started blooming, but the flowers will last throughout most of the late summer.

I love perennials! They come back each year, whether I have the gardening bug that year or not. They are especially thick and lush this year with our abundance of moisture, though if you look closely you will also see an abundance of weeds. These Day Lilies and Purple Cone Flowers also need to be divided, because the bed is becoming seriously overgrown.
