Here in the Mid-Atlantic USA (USDA zone 7) on the DC-MD border, we have had a HOT June-July and lots of flooding rains -- a pattern that seems to be set in place for the rest of the summer.
In my garden, I have many mid-summer blooms, so I thought I'd narrow the focus to just the yellow ones this month. I am not a big fan of the color except as an occasional accent. I don't seek it out in plants I acquire, but it makes its way into my garden nevertheless.
Aside from the yellow perennial flowers picture here, I also have yellow annuals in the garden including marigolds, sunflowers, and lantana.
So what is blooming today in YOUR garden?

The yellows do add a nice accent, especially when there are lots of pinks and purples, like I have in one of my beds. Some coreopsis and calendulas thrown in the mix are striking. I love your solid yellow daylily.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Lisa. I have both coreopsis 'Moonbeam' and calendula blooming now as well - how could I forget these sweet accents!
ReplyDeleteVery pretty!
ReplyDeleteHappy Garden Bloggers' Bloom Day!
Thanks for stopping by Lea! :-)
DeleteI love yellows, but I also love orange daylilies (which apparently aren't in fashion), so maybe don't go by what I like. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by Rebecca :-)
DeleteMy common orange daylilies have pretty much ended by this week - a few double are left - but otherwise all petered out.
Pretty yellow lily...Happy blooms day.
ReplyDeleteThank you Arun!
