Blackeyed Susan

Hi,
I am from New Zealand. I have been searching high and low for some time now for a precise botanical line-drawing of the Blackeyed Susan (thunbergia alata).

If you have a source to this, please email me.

Much thanks
Andrew

Is that the creeper with the small orange flowers? Not wishing to sound an " environmental warning" but it can take over your garden in warmer climates.
I am forever pulling it out and unwrapping it from other plants, but having been warned, if you want some of the dreaded stuff email me and I will try to find seeds or at least a small plant.

I believe Rudbeckia is also called Blackeyed Susan as well..(a sunflower like flower). They grow wild here at Prairies...

I agree with chardy, that's the one I planted from seed 8 yrs ago, it still comes up everywhere and is a terrible weed; we should try to stick to botanical names there is so much confusion with common names.

Yes, it is a weed here, don't know how it behaves in NZ - lucky Andrew only wants a drawing of it.
