This flower is also called “African Daisy” or “Cape Daisy”. Very colourful, and the yellow ones we bought at the nursery close up at night and reopen in full daylight. We also have some purple/blue ones that don’t do this so I guess it’s not a pattern of behaviour for all of these flowers.
I am a sucker for daisies and brown-eyed susans and so these guys are right up my alley.
Here’s a photograph of the purple/blue ones.

I will be at the Elks Club tomorrow presenting prints and cards at the Treehouse Boutique Show. I thought that I would publish early since I will be quite busy setting up in the early morning. I hope to see you there.

I find brown eyed susans to be one of the more attractive wildflowers that grow in our part of the world.
Massed or individually,
…they are pretty neat.
They also “play well with others”…

It’s a gray morning. Rain, fog and little light. This may brighten it up!
Perhaps it will hasten the arrival of the sunshine.
A hint to the gods?
