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!

                                                                                            Carolyn

  4. 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!

  9. 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,
    Jann
