Hi Jim,

   Could it be Rudbeckia 'Indian Summer'? 

      http://www.hort.net/gallery/view/ast/rudis/

   But like you say, just about everything is a Rudbeckia nowadays.  :)

   I just came back from a nursery visit myself.  Good thing I only went
   to pick up one non-plant product; I came back with a carload of goodies.

   I'm outside finding homes and figuring out what I shouldn't have bought
   right now.

   How are the temperatures by you?  Any better today?  No hail?

Chris
