Well I guess that is it…… summer is finally over. Petals have fallen and seed heads remain.
The last of the Rudbeckia for 2012. They have put on a fantastic display and we are indeed sad to see them go. At least the birds have some tasty seeds to feed upon over autumn and prior to the winter cold.
Time as always move on at a relentless pace…. but despite that we must still..

Yes Black-Eyed Susie is the popular name here too….. for some reason it’s a name not used as much as it used to be. (Far to many posh gardener’s 😄)
