Black-eyed Susans invading my lawn

Black-eyed Susans invading my lawn, originally uploaded by dunrie.

We’ve got black-eyed Susans flowering in our back lawn, and they’ve crossed the fence and are working their way towards our neighbors’ garage. My garden is colonizing our and our neighbors’ lawn. I have been meaning to do this myself (dig up turf, replace with flowerbeds)–how interesting to see that the plants have decided to take on the task themselves.

A weed is a plant growing in the wrong place. These are garden, not weeds!
