The Black-eyed Susans

In my mixed flower garden, there is always a different flower blooming.

Let me tell you about how that garden got started...

There was an old/out dated package of seeds, 

that I tossed in a bare garden area, 

- barely raked in...never expected one flower to bloom -

and every year it produces more and more flowers and it grows in beauty.

I love it's natural element.

Right now the Daisies and Black-eyed Susan's are the star of the show.

I have been watching them and photographing them every day.

Here is one, bud to bloom!

At every stage, from bud to bloom, it is magnificent!!
