It's Yellow Time in the garden

King's buttercup - lysimachia

This time of year the primrose bloom and take over the colour scheme in my garden.  Hardly anyone has King's buttercup in their garden anymore, but I like the old fashioned bloom. Yellow can really brighten a dark corner and I have many in my shady garden.

But yellow isn't the only colour and I planted gold flame spirea bushes and roses to fill the colour gap in June.

Sweet william in the front garden, the only trouble with buying items at a club garden sale is you seldom know the colour.
