In this spring wildflowers nature study, we’re talking about one of my very favorite nature topics of all time!
If I asked you to name your very favorite flower, what would it be?
It’s hard for me to narrow my choice down to just one, but black-eyed Susans are always a favorite. Black-eyed Susans are in the daisy family and they have beautiful yellow petals and a dark brown center. They kind of remind me of sunshine and I love sunshine.

Some people grow black-eyed Susans on purpose in cultivated flower gardens, but they can also be found growing in the wild all over North America. What’s the difference between a cultivated flower and a wildflower? Well, that’s our main topic today!
If you think about the term wildflower, I bet you hear a certain word that helps you guess where they grow. Yes, in the wild. That means they don’t need help from humans to grow.
