Hosta Yellow 2023 .......................
I need to also add yellow to the garden and momma still needs to shop .......................
I had a golf cart when I worked. After we replaced the phones, I kept a receiver with cord on the dash of said cart. When I got irritated after a radio call, I would pick up that receiver and slam it down, many times. Other employees took to slamming my phone down also.
It will be a Jeopardy question soon Don Pardo.
I wonder whose idea it was.
Show us some yellows today .....

Cassia weed aka Candlestick plant host for sulphur butterflies Double tropical hibiscus..maybe Gator Magic, I forget lol Sunflower Citrus, by Burpee I think Michelia figo aka Magnolia figo or just Banana Shrub! Very underused and under rated plant in the south. I get strong vanilla and banana fragrance on warm afternoons. It is an evergreen and can get 10ft tall and is a good screening out plant.

Comments (33)Pieter..should I move it?..what would an ideal location be?..is there such a thing? 😅..if it’s doubtful that a move would help I can live with the different look.. Ann Ann, I've had them in different locations and have not been able to nail down what it is that it is in fact responding to, which I suspect is a temperature related thing, and of course our yards are loaded with micro-climates. I've had misting show up on 'Ben Vernooij' as well, but not near as bad as that first picture I showed. Pieter...See MoreHosta H 2023 ...........................
Comments (31)Debra - your Hanky Panky may be the best one I've seen. Such clean crisp colors and perky, folded leaves for August. peren - yours is massive and really showcases how pretty the variation in colors can be. And it has such a variation in appearance through the year. Mine inevitably gets some weird combination of leaf colors . . . Here's mine in May before the colors get confused High Voltage - one where the color changes from very subtle variegation to not-so-subtle. Here it is in the middle of the transition. This just keeps getting better. One I always look forward to just beginning to put on some of that Sum and Substance Size - How About That!...See MoreHosta Companion 2023 ......................
Comments (60)indianagardengirl, your hellebores are loaded! I want to plant more this year. Right now mine are under snow, but we need the water so I'm not complaining! debra, you don't want to be cutting down daffodil leaves. It's hard to place bulbs so that we don't mind seeing them die back, but that's how they'll get energy to come up next year. But it's nice when we can finally clear the dead leaves away....See More

2 months agoPaula - I Like the phone trick. I drove a fork lift for several years, first with radio communication and later cell phones. When I'd get an irritating call or someone I didn't want to talk to, I'd hold the mike by the horn and blast it. Got in trouble for it a few times.
I think my yellows tend to be more chartreuse, probably lack of sun and pictures taken later in the season but I'm calling these yellow. :-)Sun Power

Ann I have got to get FI planted. Yours are a beacon.

One of my favourite yellows: 'Dawn's Early Light'. It is viridescent, unfortunately, so it doesn't put on its best show for too long but I can't wait for it to show its colours in spring!
Another that's right up there on my favourites list is 'Fire Island', can't really go wrong with it in the spring and then in the fall there's those wonderful purple flowers.

I don't have photos of Fire Island -- it had a rough year last year, but looks like it might come back strong this year (if we don't have another late freeze).
