Author Message   Chevere33  Posted on Sunday, June 22, 2008 - 06:41 pm EST :    This picture was taken a few days ago, but now the flower is open more. It looks like a Black-eyed Susan, but with a yellow center. I got it for the foliage, and was surprised that it gave me a flower. Anyone know what it is?

I right clicked on that and selected 'view image' and then was able to save it and re-post it. I don't know why some pics don't show up.
