As the world outside is frosty, it’s great to have been prompted to share some more yellow flowers and bask for a while in their warm, cheerful shades. I’ve looked for different intensities of colours from soft, almost greyish to pure and bright and have included some rarities and commoners. For anyone in need of an extra fix, my first gallery is here.














Shared for HeyJude’s Life in Colour challenge: Yellow.

That’s quite a gallery and as you say, yellow has a cheerful effect. It’s made me impatient to get back into the garden but I have to be patient. Even if the weather warmed up enough to make it pleasant to work there, the soil is so waterlogged i doubt if I should do anything.
You’re right to wait. Gardeners benefit from a fallow season too.
Oh what a delight! And we even have the sunshine to go with them today.
We’ve had our fair share of blue skies but the wind is making some strange noises round here today.
You’re not kidding. I got Daily Exercise over with good and early today.
very nice
Thank you!
Happy, sunny, spring-is-coming YELLOW. ❤
I especially love the Auricula ‘April Moon’ and dandelions!
Thank you for the cheer!
You’ve gone for the boldest and brightest 🙂
I had barely recovered from The Pilgrim buds when I scrolled down to the daffodils and hellebores, and had to catch my breath again. What a magnificent combination! And I love the way the yellows and purples repeat themselves off in the distance; that is a gorgeous photo. I just came in from shoveling the latest snow, and this entire gallery (and the previous one) were exactly what I needed to warm and look up. Thank you!
The Pilgrim buds always look as if they expect to have formed on a pink rose and have to change tack rapidly when they discover their mistake. I’m glad you spotted the hellebores. They were even more impressive than the daffodils, though decidedly in their shade. Sorry you have had to be clearing snow. That’s no fun.
Nice collection Susan. I love flowers, specialy flowers in the wild. Thanks for giving us these warming pictures during the cold and frosty days.
When I first started blogging I wondered whether I should try to keep things seasonal, but was reassured by readers that it didn’t much matter and was perhaps more fun to break it up a bit.
Thanks for spreading the sunny cheer!
We have to thank HeyJude for forcing my hand 🙂
Oh, swoon! Do you grow Rudbeckia triloba or Zizia aurea?
I’ve grown rudbeckia in the past, but not the one you mention. I don’t know I have ever seen Zizia aurea.
Different shades of yellowish
I don’t think of yellow as being greyish, but some of these are heading that way.
Your blog is amazing…so I must say thank you
Thanks!
My pleasure!
I really enjoyed your yellow flowers. It made me eager to be back in Michigan and working in the garden – although right now it is under snow. 🙂
The ground is pretty frozen here too.
If I lived in the deep south of the US all year long I would really miss the dramatic change in seasons that the north has. But I’m not wishing to be in the deep winter cold that the north is experiencing this year.
The forecast is to be very cold for my sweetheart in Mississippi at the start of the week.
Lindisfarne; flippin’ ‘eck, that’s lovely! I just want to run amok in it! There’s some lovely images there, especially those heleniums! I know a lot of gardeners don’t like yellow in the garden but I’ve got a north facing garden and I tell you what, yellow flowers and limey leaves with some blue pots really makes the garden sing!
My camera battery ran out after taking that shot and I can’t look at it without mild regret, but when you have no camera, perhaps you are more in the moment – I’m never sure.
I used not to particularly like yellow flowers with pink ones, but I’m less picky these days. I’ve met several people who have a passion for yellow roses.
