    Right where I want to be.
    and they've gone bonkers.
    These are "Irish Eyes". Some are easily over 8' tall.
    This is the original planting in front of the garden fence from 3-4 years ago.

    I believe it is a form of Rudbeckia Irish Eyes. I have them here too, they are invasive, but sure do put on a showing in the late summer.
