Very handsome. Is it also called a Black-eyed Susan?

It is Michaella. I've seen rudbeckia called black-eyed susan so I find Thunbergia more clear. We had wild black-eyed susan's (rudbeckia) all over idaho growing up.

That's the second time you've called me Michaella, Greenthumb! Don't mind really - it's a lovely name, but not mine!! That's what happens when a pseudonym is adopted. My real name is Shirley - do please use it if you want to. Interesting to learn that a Black-eyed Susan can be a Rudbeckia too. Not heard that one before.

OMG Shirley, I wasn't thinking. Having the name will help me concentrate. :-) How embarrassing.
I was always confused with wild rudbeckia called that while growing up. No one seemed to have thunbergia around to tell me any different. I will use your proper name! :-)
