Summer Sunshine – Yellow Inspiration
Table of Contents
Yellow is a great colour that radiates summer, sunshine and happiness!
It’s a strong hue that compliments everything from white and purple flowers to neutral hostas and grasses. Tell me, have you ever seen a yellow flower and not thought of summer and sunshine?
Fill your garden full of yellow with some of my favourite summer flowering suggestions:
