Beautiful banner. But the flowers looks more like gaillardias than rudbeckias.

Very cheery banner. Like Deebie, I was thinking gaillardias, too.

I believe the flower is called Arizona Sun Gaillardia. It's a wonderful plant - blooms all summer, bushy - doesn't flop over in the rain. I had a few dozen of them for over 3 yrs. until we had very cold bad winter - lost them all in a flash.
Beautiful banner!"
