I don't buy yellow flowers, not keen on them, but the lovely Welsh poppy is always welcome.

I hate to ask ....are you at work? :-)))) I'm not keen on scarlet either, if it's red I like a touch of blue to it or sort of maroony and I don't like orange much unless it's tempered with pinkish undertones. Just realised ....I'm very fussy:-))

I agree Ba.....about the colours that is, not you being fussy lol!

Ha ha, I will get all the plants you do not like, ladies. I do not like pink. Lucky for Garden Centers that we all have different tastes. I love your yellow irises Bornagain.

Thanks Klahanie and Sandra, it's a bit like a box of chocolates, I never liked the strawberry cream although it was the favourite of others:-))

They look lovely together Ba. I also like to let the yellow poppies self-seed, but sometimes wish they made better choices of where to land :)

True Sheila, but not impossible to get out unlike my other yellow flowers ...buttercups ***!!! (expletives):-)

Oh, buttercups...that is one yellow flower I do not like...at all. The plant is a bully. Wants to be everywhere.

Yes Sheila, Klahanie loves yellow flowers and, in her first comment on here, has offered to have any I don't like ...and I don't like buttercups:-))
8 Jun, 2013
Lol Ba!
8 Jun, 2013
LOL.:-))) I'll pass on that one BA. I have plenty, thank you very much. It is not the flower I dislike it is its creepy(ing) behaviour which I dislike.
Happy weeding!!!

They make rather good cut flowers Klahanie ....are you sure you're not interested? :-)
