I try to remember to call them Rudbeckia, but since I grew up in Maryland, I think I will always think of them as Black Eyed Susans (the state flower of Maryland.)

They're Black-Eyed Susans to me, too. "Rudbeckia" makes me think of RAH's "Citizen of the Galaxy".

Black-Eyed Susans in New England, too.

And Illinois. And Michigan.

Virginia votes for black-eyed Susans. I'd never even heard of Rudbeckia before.
