Yellow Flowers for the Garden

The beauty of yellow flowers is that there are so many different shades, ranging from the more mellow to the downright vibrant. While the color is often a bit softer and more inviting than, say. orange or red, it still manages to pack a bold punch. Read on for our top picks for the prettiest plants (perennial or annual!) with yellow flowers to add to your garden this season.

Dahlia

Dahlias are prized for their spectacular, long-lasting blooms and endless variety in color and form. Although often treated as annuals, dahlias grow from tubers that can be dug up and stored for replanting the following spring. In frost-free climates, the tubers can stay in the ground and will rebloom year after year.

 Hollyhock

These full-sun lovers can grow up to 7 feet tall—so they’re great for to plant along a fence. Not only will they add a splash of color to your garden, they also have a lovely scent, which will attract bees and butterflies!

Daffodil

Cheerful and trumpet-like, the daffodil signals spring’s arrival.

Graham Thomas Rose

Cupped shaped blooms of rich, pure yellow have a strong tea rose fragrance. It has an upright growth habit that can be trained as a spectacular climber or bushy shrub. Highly recommended. Inducted into the Rose Hall Of Fame by the World Federation of Rose Societies 2009. 1.2m tall and can be used as a moderate climber.
