Gold Flowers and Golden Plants

dutch 084

Golden flowers are generally Yellow Gold not Old Gold or burnished gold.

I liked these pansies in what I think of as Old Gold.

Many plants have Gold in there title including;

  • Lantana ‘New Gold’ and ‘Gold Mound’
  • Achillea ‘Gold Plate’ and Achilea ‘Coronation Gold’
  • Asclepias ‘Silky Gold’
  • Bidens ‘Goldmarie’ and Bidens ‘Gold Spark’
  • Roses Golden Wedding, Golden Years, Golden Wings, Gold Medal, Good as Gold and my favourite Goldbusch.

There are many other plants that have a gold tinge or colour to there leaves.

  • Lonicera Baggins Gold
  • Chamaecyparis obtusa ‘Golden Fern’ and Golden Pygmy
  • Acer japonica
  • Chamaecyparis Lawsoniana Broomhills Gold, Ellwood’s Gold and Burford Gold.
  • Golden Hop is probably as tall as many of the conifers.

Acer japonica

 

Go for Gold and you may win a medal at your horticultural Olympics. At worst you will have had the fun of growing a special golden plant.
