I know these are black-eyed Susans, but I don't see black; I see brown. The centers make me think of Clyde's little wet nose, so I may just rename them for myself as Clyde's noses and call it good. These guys sprouted a few days after the tornado that wasn't that actually was after a proper review of the amateur video footage. We've got it all here in Connecticut, that's for sure. We have also the lesson that if you stay close to the ground, Mother Nature is less likely to mow you down on a bad-hair. You live. Your learn. You blossom.

ReplyDeleteMother nature can be very scary.
ReplyDeleteIt frightened me a few times in my life. Its better not to cross her lol
But then you get the sunshine and flowers and life goes on.:)
I like the name Clyde's noses much better. People all through the rest of history will wonder who Clyde was! I often rename things or give people names to certain trees. As my daughter used to say, "They are real to me".
ReplyDeleteI am glad that you and these brown nosed Clydes survived the tornado.
ReplyDeletenature has many lessons to teach us...I saw some of those same flowers yesterday on my walk but they were red orange.
ReplyDeleteyou got me humming Van Morrison's My Brown-eyed Girl.:p
ReplyDeleteClyde looks handsome in his hat and matching jacket.
Completely agree with you: they're brown-eyed girls :)
ReplyDelete(And now I can't get Van Morrison out of my mental ears.)
yes, staying close to mother.. mother nature is safe and cosy. Beautiful flower.
ReplyDeleteHi Sandy ~~ In Yankee Land they are Black-eyed Susan. But Mrs. Jim, hailing from Louisiana, taught me that they were Black-eyed Susans.
ReplyDelete..
Brown-eyed Susan per Google
..
Not all the cultivated roses on earth beat a clump of flowering meadow.God's hand is most apparent in the little things.
ReplyDeleteI might start calling them Clyde's noses also. You can learn from nature, stay low, stay flexible and you stand a better chance.
ReplyDeleteThe flowers add to my painting called flowers of the nind
ReplyDeleteGorgeous blooms, love the "brown" you added hehehe!
ReplyDeleteOrange Lilies
LOL! They look brown to me as well.
ReplyDeleteMad Kane

Clyde's Nose is the perfect name to me. :)
