Black-eyed Susans

A hearty wildflower and member of the sunflower family.  Rudbeckia hirta

I saw these two flowers along my fence in the back yard.  After a Google search, I learned Black-eyed Susans can have anywhere from 8-20 florets.  So here are two example and definitely a different number of florets...yet only about 20 feet apart.  More trivia...the state flower of Maryland.
