Cosmos Flowers
The Cosmos Flowers are blooming like mad here in Michigan! There are about 20 different kinds of Cosmos, so I am not exactly sure which one this is. These type of plants will grow to about 3 or 4' tall and are very easy to take care of. They are also one of the easiest seeds to grow. Often times this plant will re-seed itself if you let the seeds fall right off the flowers.

From This...
To this...
The Black Eyed Susan or Yellow Coneflower are a very easy perennial to take care of. They will adapt to most types of soil as long as they get plenty of sun. The Black Eyed Susan also makes a great cut flower!
