Show your Yellows.
Have some more yellows for you!
Yellow Zinnia Magellan, I grew from seed.
Floating Heart in the watergarden (the leaves are heart shape)
Not sure what it is :-) But very yellow ...
rcn thanks for the feedback :)
had no idea of sooooo many St Johns' W.!
Here is our latest yellow: "Imperial Lemon" daylily
I tried to get some photos yesterday morning but the lighting wasn't very good - too much sun but got a few to share anyway.
wind, this one's for you - the last remaining yellow bloom on Hypericum 'Albury Purple'.
Ligularia japonica, color is more of an orange-yellow.
close up of flowers
Ligularia 'Little Rocket' in the shade - don't know if the flash went off or what, just didn't capture the really rich yellow of the flowers
Echinacea 'Sunrise' - you can see the yellow spikes of Lig 'Little Rocket' in the background
closer shot of 'Sunrise'
And the last few blooms on the spikes of Digitalis ambigua, this one has been blooming since the end of May! Lots of Daylilies opening up this week and will try to get a few pictures of the yellows to post as well as the flowers of Hypericum 'Blue Velvet' for wind :)
Debbie
Such, pretty flowers. Keep 'em coming! Debbie, I have Sunset coneflower and it's the most unusual color. Sort of orange overlaid with glowing pink. The Sunrise is gorgeous.
Some more yellows Yarrow, Coronation Gold This has been growing in my garden for years.
And a pumpkin flower, this self seeded from the compost pile I used to dress the flower beds with, didn't have the heart to pull it out.
Hi, Chri- I don't blame you on the pumpkin. If they weren't just a vegetable, wouldn't they have merit for the dramatic flowers and foliage? That yarrow picture ids pretty too.
Finally got my not chocolate daisy flowers- did we ever get an ID on that?
No definite ID, maybe you can find one... I'm betting it's one of the perennial helianthus types... Mine are still putting on a show!
now that i down loaded over 1000 pictures i can play too :-)
don't worry....not all of them are yellow!
this is a daylily i got from marietta's...don't recall if it is quietly awesome or canopy of heaven
my little yellow nana goose....she'll always need special care as she can't stand without help, but she is just delightful to have....this was her first night and she was chilled from having taken a dip in water
more yellow....
newberry frilly lady....
the picture above is cherokee vision
chiffon delight....
unknown wildflower
oops....
Here's my yellow lantana doing just what it's intended to do.
Love all these yellows. Lynda, do you know the name of that spider daylily? It sure is pretty. Like the one with the duckbill too. LOL
Holly, I had forgotten how pretty lantana is. I used to have it in my garden at my old house every year. Haven't grown it here - figured it would be too dry for it but maybe I should try.
the spider is cherokee vision....
the person i won it from on the auction (who has since retired) sent me some "not" plants, but at least instead of one the sent two of these and both have increased....i just love it :-)
still working on coming up with housing for the jumping goose (she has been perfecting that trick!) and the blind duck....they are doing well together as the little duck really doesn't like to be alone
I love my Greater Celandine Poppy. The seeds came from friends in the UK. The plant stays green all winter here in Carlisle, PA and it reseeds itself readily. Very pretty leaves, too.
Cassia marilandica is blooming now & very yellow. Extremely hardy in PA.
rachel my love....my first dl to open this year
here is marked by lydia
Wow! That Marked by Lydia is a lot prettier than in the photo at Maryott, Lynda.
Did you grow your cassia from seeds, Buttoneer? That's such a pretty plant.
i think she's gorgeous...i got her from subhana flourishing....she also sells on the "i should have never looked at..." lily auction :-)
i really like that one!
Hart, I got the original plants from a fellow I met at my first plant swap years ago. But they make so many seeds I donate a lot of them to the HPS/MAG group in PA. Do you want some seeds? These plants get 5-6 feet tall but are lovely and make a great border.
They aren't yellow but I wanted Chris to see how well the water plants she gave me are doing. This is the small well of my birdbath/fountain just a temp home for the plants, although a few will stay in is pond and some will get moved to the other ponds when I "finally" get them up and running. This well is 5 ft across and 3 ft deep. Water from the well is pumped up though the bird bath where it fills the basin and drips back into the well.

Holly, can you post a picture of the whole birdbath and well. Did you make it yourself, or did you purchase it. I want a birdbath for my lower deck and a water feature. What a neat way of getting both!
Each pic more gorgeous than the last, everyone. Nana goose is too cute for words. Here is a TB with a little visitor earlier this summer.
Here is a thread with more pics and descriptions of my ponds.

I very much enjoy both of these small water features. Right now the "box pond" is down for repairs and some of the water plants that Chris gave me will be going in there as soon as Ric gets it fixed.
A little something for the butterflies. I could have posted this in either the yellow or the red threads.
Tangie: What's a TB? Doesn't look like an iris.
Sorry, happy....wasn't thinking.....it's a tuberous begonia.....guess I should have that second cup of coffee now.
