Gaillardia with flower fly
Rudbeckia subtomentosa 'Henry Eiler
' is an unusual and robust selection of a midwestern black-eyed Susan -- the ray petals have a lovely rolled edge.

I've had fun learning more about western
Agastache species -- there are some great candidates. I don't know what the species of this cultivar is, but it certainly is striking.

It's Agastache 'Summer Love' from Terra Nova Nursery.
I love Agastache and so do my hummingbirds! Its a great long-blooming summer flower.
ReplyDeletenw -- I'm looking forward to trying more Agastache next year - they're great for bees and I'm glad to hear that some of them are great for hummingbirds, too. Do you have some favorite species?
