Unfortunately this is HELIANTHUS tuberosus!
Our editors respectfully disagree. The petals of the helianthus tuberosus aka Jerusalem artichoke are narrower and have a more tapered tip and it's leaves are narrower with smooth edging as opposed to the rudbeckia's slightly wider petal with a less tapered tip and leaves that are wider with an edging that resembles a pinking shear cut. Also the ox-eye center is fuller. Enjoyed exchanging ideas with you Dr.Schmitt Thank you for stopping by. Hope you'll visit again.
