Yellow

[JennyWrenn]

I think u r right Plocket - my crocosmia still in bud - maybe ours will last longer then

[Plocket]

Hehehe - maybe Jenny ;D Mine are in a sunny spot too but they don't get the evening sun. I still think the area of the country you are in makes a difference

The "common" orange one is in full flower along the hedgerows just now and it looks wonderful, we treat it like a weed in these parts

That is probably why my garden is full of them. Bought the house in July last year and don't remember the orange crocosmia. But this year, boy, our garden is full of them. Fortunately they are growing nextg to my yellow sunblest rose and st John's Wort (can't remember the latin name) so it doesn'/t look too bad. I don't like getting rid of plants but I am tempted to pull some of them up, as theyt do take over.

Rudbeckia in any shape or form is brilliant for this time of year, some of these were from saved seeds









Not strictly yellow but I can't separate it from the others




If you haven't tried them put them on your list for next year - you wont be disappointed ;D

[lottielady]

So that will be another thing to add to my list for next year JL!

Lovely photos - all of them. I gave up on Dahlia's years ago for the simple reason I got fed up of taking them out in Autumn but seeing some of the lovely pics in the gallery, I am tempted to buy one or two again.

Whats the 4th photo Wt they look a bit like chin's ?

[Weeterrier]

Hi jlottie, when I bought them, years ago now. they were called Bulbinella hookeri, but they have had a name change I believe. Though I have just looked up the Chiltern seeds catalogue, and they are still listed as bulbinella. I used to grow them beside a clump of black Iris chrysographes, Unfotunately I lifted them all to move them when I had an extension built. I potted everything up temporarily. Earlier in the year, I gave my neighbour some pots of plants, and by mistake I gave her the Iris, one of my favourites. She was so delighted when they flowered, I didn't have the heart to ask for them back. At least I can see them when I walk By her house.

[Plocket]

PRETTY!!!! ;D

It took some time but here is the Bishop of York.

Ah and my pale yellow sunflower called Italian white.
Must be a disappointment when you expect to get a white sunflower.
I would advise this small one to all however. It is lovely.

[Plocket]

I grew that variety last year Dutchy and agree that they are beautiful.

That looks really lovely Dutchy - I haven't seen them before. I will definitely try and get some seeds if I can - just a quick question though - how big do they grow?

P yes they are are they not?

About a max of 2 meter, the flowers are smaller than saucers and I will send you some seeds. They are ripening now so with some luck I get plenty.

That is a very nice one. What is it? It seems kind of small as I can see some Pulmonaria below it.

[Deleted]

I'm not sure if it is a Pulmonaria or just dodgy photography , although I do have Pulmonaria in the garden from the previous owner (one of the few things which are left!!)
I think the flower is Calendula (Marigold), very ordinary.

[Shrubrose]

It might be ordinary GH but it is very pretty nonetheless.
