Coneflower

Last fall, I transplanted several Black-eyed Susans from a city garden maintained by the local garden club. The garden club was removing them from city property to prepare for some public works project underneath the garden. It paid to have connections.

Turns out the Black-eyed Susans had been “invaded” by Coneflowers in the city garden, so I got some of those mixed in with the Black-eyed Susans. I had hoped to plant some Coneflowers anyway, so this was a happy accident.

This post also afforded me the opportunity to correct an “earlier” post,* incorrectly labelled as Black-eyed Susans.
