Black-eyed Susan (Rudbeckia hirta) is a well-known, native wildflower across the U.S. as a mid-summer bloomer.🌻
🌻The Tennessee countryside is full of wildflower patches that include Rudbeckia and Queen Anne’s Lace.
🌻A native flower, Rudbeckia attracts a number of pollinators. Attracted to both the nectar and pollen, honey bees will sometimes work them depending on what else is in bloom.🍯🐝
🌻Rudbeckia is also important to songbirds which eat the seed heads once they have dried. If you have Rudbeckia in your midst, let it go to seed to afford wildlife the full benefit. It will return in abundance next year.
