Black-eyed Susans are beautiful daisy-like flowers that bloom in the late summer until early fall. They are adorned with either orange, red, or yellow petals and have a dark brown/black center - hence their name; their stems and leaves are covered in tiny hairs, giving them a rough texture. These plants thrive best in full sun and well-drained, rich soil that is kept relatively moist. Black-eyed Susans are attractive to birds and butterflies and make great additions to flower bouquets.

Daylilies can grow in full sun or partial shade and bloom in the spring, summer, and fall seasons. Their leafless stems, or scapes, can grow to reach 6 feet tall!
