Any ideas for yellow flowers or a bush with flowers like Yarrow, Baby's Breath, Queen Anne's Lace, etc. that

grows in Northern Calif. (zone 9B) Everything so far is not a perrenial, is invasive, looks like a week when not blossoming, or something! I've looked through thousands of flowers! Don't you hate it when you have a certain picture in your mind but nothing matches it? Any suggestions?

Any ideas for yellow flowers or a bush with flowers like Yarrow, Baby's Breath, Queen Anne's Lace, etc. that
Yarrow does come in yellow. It is native in the white, A. millifolium.





Kerria japonica. Nice little shrub with puffy yellow flowers early in the year.





Forsitia too.





And calendula. Daisy like. Like the hear and don't need much water.





Marigolds?





Tidy tips (Annual), or Coreopsis (both annual %26amp; perennial spp.) are nice yellow wild daisy types. My lance leaf coreopsis have been blooming for a couple months now.





Have you seen the yellow Echinacea? Purple cone flowers with yellow petals.





And there is a Native "coneflower", Rudbeckia spp. that are very nice. Go up around Monterey and Pt Lobos.





Yellow eyed grass is a great little wildflower. Smal and Iris like.





And there are native Iris, the Pacific Coast Hybrids, in yellows and blues, and more colors.





Wish I could see the picture in your head so I might know what you want.





Maybe a large Sedum? Or Dudleya? Succulents that have yellow flowers on stalks.





Native Violets. Nice yellow flowers on groundcover like plants.
Reply:Forsythias are my husbands favorite, they get really big fast, and are quite lovely.
Reply:Try the Californian sunflowers or golden wild sunflowers. they grow almost round the year periods
Reply:Acacia has a nice yellow flower. It grows profusely all along the highways in Lake County.
Reply:Thryallis is nice and can be trimmed as it can get pretty large. It's often used as a landscaping bush. It grows well in FL. It doesn't blossom year round but, it is nice green and woodsy looking shrub.
