A Bit of Yellow



                                                                            Hello everyone,
                                                  Yesterday, when I was touring around the
                                                  garden ,I found a few yellow lupines blooming in
                                                  the back of one of the beds so I picked them for
                                                  my little bouquet. These were new seedlings so
                                                 they put on a late show this year.
         

                                                      Did you notice that the double yellow hollyhocks
                                                      are still blooming too?

                                                       Yellow lupines seem to be a bit uncommon in the wild here.
                                                       so I plant them from seeds or pick up seedlings when I find them.









   Love this!

                                   I enjoyed some time with my camera
                                             yesterday before my husband tore me away
                                         to go for lunch in the charming town of 
 Georgetown.

                                                Today, I enjoyed a day out with
                                                          a friend and tomorrow it is a
                                                         day out with another friend.....
                                                         I am loving have a few lazy days
                                                         before summer ends.

                                                           Hope you have a lovely long weekend!

    Beautiful! I love both the lupines and hollyhocks. And the yellow! Very soft and sweet. I have some yellow rudbekia's and some black eyed susan's but they are all more gold in color. I think I may need to add some new flowers into my gardens!

    Lovely images. I'd like to be napping right there in the wicker chair with the comfy pillows, Carolyn. Enjoy your day.

    A touch of yellow is so cheery in the garden. I love yellow Lupines! Had one at my previous home for quite a few years, but as Lupines sometimes do it finally didn't come back. Gorgeous dishes and I love your double Hollyhock as well!
    hugs,
