[IMG]http://www.davidschoenberger.net/joy/photogra phy/Flower13.jpg[/IMG] I'm in Fredericksburg (Zone 7), and this is a perennial, mid-late summer blooming flower, about 10-12" tall. |

I would say that it is Melampodium, but I know that it is an annual...not sure what zone it is though, so maybe it would overwinter in zone 7. |

They're pretty. They look similar to something that has bloomed from my mom's bird seed, but I never paid attention to the leaves. |

No, unfortunately Melampodium will not overwinter in zone 7 either. |

It is Melampodium, its an annual. When I pull mine I shake the seeds where I want them next year. trudy |

As Jade suggests, Melampodium, probably paludosum. It is zone 8ish, but it is quick to flower and will readily reseed to at least zone 5 (which is why many assume it is a "perennial.") [edit : sorry trudy, didn't mean to repeat.] |
