As a grower, you may initially dismiss the benefits of annual flowers due to their seasonality, but many flower lovers remain eager to begin planting them each season. It’s true that establishing annual flower beds may require more work than many perennial plantings, but they let you easily change the style and appearance of their garden from one season to the next.
Planting annual flower beds is a quick and easy way to add large sections of dramatic color to home flower gardens. With careful planning, annual flower borders can provide vibrant bursts of color throughout the entire growing season, at very little cost to gardeners.
Annuals with Yellow Flowers
Easy to grow annual flower varieties are especially popular with beginner gardeners and those who hope to design growing spaces that are both colorful and inviting to guests. Specifically, bright yellow annuals are prized by growers for both their beauty and ability to attract pollinators and other beneficial insects.
Yellow Edibles
Yellow blooming annuals are among the most popular flowers planted by both flower gardeners and vegetable growers. Most of us are already quite familiar with more common yellow annuals, like sunflowers and zinnias, but in fact there are many edible yellow flowers. These include certain varieties of pansy and nasturtiums. Learning more about these interesting annuals with yellow flowers can help you diversify your space.
Diversify with Yellow
Yellow blooming annuals can range greatly in bloom time, size, and in growth habit, depending on the type planted. To create the most visually appealing display, you should consider growing bright yellow annuals of differing heights and bloom periods.
Early season annuals with yellow flowers include plants like calendula and certain varieties of poppies. Mid-season flowers, like marigolds and cosmos, are also common; especially when used as decorative bedding plants. Annuals with yellow flowers that bloom later in the season are an excellent way to extend bloom time well into the fall. These flowers include grower favorites like ornamental chrysanthemums and specific varieties of rudbeckia.
