Dee- it is Rudbeckia Sahara. I get all sorts of fun colors from it. There are also Rudbeckia Cherry Brandy in this photo as well.

Some May - June yellows

I took the picture, but it's not my golden chain tree. I wish it was!

Only these cold-hardy Opuntia humifusa.

These are in a tub because they took over the ground.

Ok, Ken -- now I am convinced you're expecting grandkids!

Globeflower (Trollius) "Golden Queen"

Rudbeckia "Denver Daisy: (I grow as an annual)

Heliopsis "Tuscan Sun" (front) and "Venus" (back):

"Happy Days" sunflower (Helianthus)

"Citronelle" heuchera

Trollius 'New Moon' (photo a bit washed out, sorry, but I love it's pale yellow shade)

Itoh peony (Bartzella?)

Thanks, diggerdee, the yellow trollius is probably close to 3 feet of foliage and maybe a foot taller to the flowers -I do put a cage around it. My orange ones bloom later and are taller - maybe we'll do orange next

(hope it's not weird to answer via an edit, I thought a comment at the bottom would get lost)

lat 62, that trollius looks taller than what I've had in the past. How tall is it? Very nice!

Thanks cab! As I said I love rudbeckia so will have to look into that one!

:)

Last batch - I think.

peren..great pics!..love them all..the bumblebee pic is outstanding! 🙂..

Couple more yellows!

I enjoy many of the Daylily photos that have been posted.

That Apricot Lemonade Cosmos is very different. Love all the Daffodil photos, my favorite yellow.

Love Ollie!

So many pretty yellow roses. Primrose, Honeysuckle, and a very pretty solid yellow Columbine. Nice. That Ilex ‘Whoa Nellie’ is so bright! That photo of the Golden Rain tree…oh my, SO full of flowers, it’s gorgeous!

Peren.all - A number of plants I don’t recognize. The first photo in the first post - What is that? And #8 in the same 1st post. Looks like a nettle? In your second post - the 1st photo - again, I have no idea what that is. Very pretty the way the flower unfurls.

And Ken - didn’t you post a photo of a Wood Poppy..?

Native right? I had the European non native that reseeded like crazy around my yard and I’ve been slowly been trying to replace it with the native. I really enjoy that plant too. I love the fuzzy seed pods that hang down.

nw thank you, I adore bees (all the critters) but bees are so just agreeable. They love a photo-op!

prairiemoon the 1st &2nd pic are Achillea 'Coronation Gold'. It is such a great plant.

#8 is the big bold Centaurea macrocephala. It can be an aggressive seeder in some states but not here.

Hmm the 1st pic in the 2nd post is Coreopsis Zagreb so I think the one you want to know about is is the 1st in the 3rd post. It is Kirengeshoma palmata and the one with the bee is too. I have Kirengeshoma koreana also and highly recommend both. Lovely flowers and foliage on this easy going but under used plant. I hope you will check it out!

peren..you're certainly doing your part to help the pollinators..thank you..🙂

peren.all - you must have one of the best perennial gardens in Ontario! I second nicholsworth's "thank you" on helping the pollinators. I was going to post a photo of a yellow (aka goldenrod) crab spider but you beat me to it.

Koelreuteria = Golden rain (vs chain) tree. Sandyslopes - that's a fantastic photo of golden chain BTW (rarely see one that's happy around here). Golden rain can be pretty invasive farther south, but doesn't appear to be strongly invasive here.

Hamamelis Arnold Promise (3/20/21)

Lonicera canadensis with delicate pale yellow flowers (4/18/21)

I could post some yellow fall color pics, but it looks like we're focusing on flowers for now ...

Wow arbordave thank you. I appreciate the beyond kind words. All of us need a pat on the back as gardeners whether we set out to provide for pollinators in the beginning or not. Grow it and they will come!

There are never too many pics of the wonderful crab spiders and I hope you post it (them). I don't think I am out of line in saying that Ken would like to see more tree/shrub pics. I agree that sandyslopes posted a fabulous pic and you posted another highlighted by the blue spruce(?) What a pretty Lonicera c.

Cheating since it is not a flower or foliage pic but part of the garden. Hope no one is afraid of spiders. A beautiful Argiope aurantia - Yellow garden spider.

Snowberry Clearwing:

Peren.all - I love Achillea ‘Coronation Gold’. It’s such a nice shade of yellow. For my purposes, any Achilliea’s I’ve tried spread a little too fast for me to keep up with.

I don’t have a Centaurea, I’ll have to look into that one. Yes, maybe the second post was not showing up for me. The Kirengeshomas I’m going to definitely look into, I love the look of those blooms.

Thanks!

I believe Coronation Gold achillea is sterile. The silver foliage is marvelous. I don't much care for yellow or golden blooms in my garden but I keep Coronation Gold for the leaves.

prairiemoon you have probably grown Achillea millefolium varieties which do spread. 'Coronation Gold' is from filipendulina. As cecily said the foliage in itself is wonderful and it thrives on neglect which is always a bonus. So glad you like it and the Kirengeshoma. The Centaurea will not be to everyone's taste.

Peren.all - Yes, I started some red shades of Achillea from seed and they grew very well and matured quickly and were long blooming and gorgeous shades, but they did spread. I wish I had a place to use more casual perennials. I love meadows and sunny wildflowers but I just don't have the property for them. I did try some of that at one point. My only full sun is in the front of my house and I have experimented there for years but gradually moved to a more formal planting. but that CG is so pretty, I'll be looking to see if there isn't some place I can use it. [g]

I have lots of yellow in my garden, but this is my favourite, probably because it is such an early splash of colour.

does anyone have the rare yellow magnolia ... rare in MI anyway ... ken

There are some in the center of my town, but I don't have any pictures of them. 😔

WOWWWW FB, those are fabulous!! Name please??

Here's my digitalis grandiflora. I really love these - not as showy or flashy as the biennial foxgloves, but I love the soft yellow color. They reseed and I do have to start ripping some out.

:)

Dee

Dee, the above heliopsis was a volunteer seedling in my garden, I like it very much! Speaking of foxglove, 'Foxy' tends to winter quite well for me, I must try others as well! I love yours !!

'Venus' shown below

Cup plant (Silphium perfoliatum)

ribes something or another ... i never named the pix file to the plant name ...

inherited it when i bought my first house ... in my famous house move of 1650 pots.. this came for the ride .. the aroma in bloom is incredible.. clove ... can be noticed 200 feet away in slightly drifting wind ..

and probably the source of various problems i had with junipers ...

ken

Ken does it berry? Very pretty!

i seem to remember it does .... and they are just bitter/tart little seedy pills that would choke a cow [taste wise] ... lol .. though i presumed with the addition of 50 pounds of sugar.. someone could make a jelly out of it ... lol ...

i loved it for the spring burst of color.. and the aroma ... but by berry time.. it was off my radar ... all my pix are dated may ... not berry season ... go figure ...

ken

That's Golden Currant aka Clove Currant, native west of the Mississippi but naturalized to the east. Very nice in bloom, but can develop foliage issues later in the season, and is also somewhat susceptible to blister rust that affects white pines.

Ken, I have two photos of yellow magnolia that I took in local neighborhoods when I was trying to decide whether to get one or not. I had to crop out a mailbox with an address on it that cut off a little bit of the left side of the tree in the long view. They are not common here either, I only have seen 2 or 3.

Here is a photographic list of shrubs with yellow foliage http://bit.ly/yellowFoliage22 . Here is a photographic list of shrubs with yellow flowers / stems http://bit.ly/yellowFlowers22 

Location is Indianapolis

I don't seen Calycanthus floridus 'Athens' mentioned, but then it's for special situations only. Mine was planted 24 years ago without knowing it has a suckering habit. Fortunately, I planted mine in a 10-foot-wide strip between two long driveways. So the spread is constrained on the east and west; that single plant now fills that space between the driveways for a distance of about 15-18 feet. It would probably not be too difficult to contain, but makes an excellent deciduous hedge. So I let it go.

It has been trouble-free in part shade (mostly morning sun) in an area that has a fair amount of crushed limestone mixed in with the soil. (No, I don't know why that stone is there, but it had been there for several years when we bought the property in 1976 and may help explain this plant's vigor!)

The blooms are pale yellow. They are large enough to be apparent, but the color doesn't make them terribly showy. Bloom season lasts a few weeks. We and most of our friends think the fragrance is better than Carlesii and Lilac; fragrance is most noticeable late afternoons and evenings. Even the cut stems are fragrant!

This plant is about 8 feet tall and fairly vigorous. So I need to keep it trimmed back from the driveway, but that's a small price to pay for the very nice foliage and the long season of great fragrance.

Tom

Arnold promise witch hazel

bump.. anything new this season?

Well, since you ask, yes! I have to show my new Julia Child rose. I'm loving it - which surprises me because I usually tend toward softer, paler yellows. But she is beautiful, imo!

:)

Dee

Blanket flower

Angel’s trumpet

Dusty Miller

Coneflower

Oh, and how could I forget my digitalis grandiflora? After all, it's taking over the yard lol. Good thing I love it's soft yellow, long-lasting blooms - as do the bees!

:)

Dee

dee that second pic is awesome... are you some professional photographer... or just lucky.. the old blind nut and squirrel thing??

ken

Haha, ken, thank you. I did work in television production for some years so I'd like to think I have a bit better eye than the average joe. I did purposely take that photo from that angle with the light behind it, but considering it was with a pretty crappy cell phone camera there was a good amount of luck involved!

:)

Dee

A couple photos from today (6/19/22) - Coreopsis and 'Bitsy' daylily. Bitsy has been a great rebloomer for me, flowering from early in the season until relatively late in the fall (started flowering in late May this year, and was still blooming on Nov 2 last fall).
