Yellow Flowering Plants
Yellow flowers often represent cheerfulness, sunshine, friendship, and hope. Yellow flowering plants make great gifts for new homes, special anniversaries, and birthdays, but they also make thoughtful sympathy and condolence gifts due to their uplifting nature.
Broom, Roses and Daffodils are a classic yellow flowering plants. We also stock more unusual yellow flowering varieties of Bougainvillea, Frangipani, and Calla Lilies. If you are looking for golden fruits, important symbols in Lunar New Year celebrations, browse our range of citrus trees.
This collection of yellow themed plants covers everything from vibrant yellows to pastel shades and deeper golden colours. Please do note that for some plants multiple colours may be available so you may need to select from a drop down menu or add a note in the special instructions if it's a yellow hued plant you are after. Some plants may only be available at certain times of year but we'll update this page regularly with more yellow flowered favourites and of course if there is a particular yellow flowered plant that you are searching for that isn't listed here then please do feel free to get in touch and we'll always help if we can.
What about yellow themed planters? Our gorgeous planted arrangements are made up fresh at the nursery by our planter queen, Fiona, so if you'd like a particular colour palette just let us know. We often have yellow flowered primulas and pansies that can be included in a special planter so please just make a note in the special instructions to let us know you'd like just yellow flowering plants or a nice mixture of complimentary yellows, oranges and whites in your planter for example and we'll do just that.
Why choose yellow flowering plants?
Yellow plants are a vibrant and uplifting colour choice, full of sunshine, hope and cheerfulness. Best for birthdays, golden anniversaries, to send congratulations, thank you and as get well gifts, our yellow flowering plants are full of positivity.
What are the best yellow flowering plants to send as gifts?
It really depends on the recipient and the space they have available, and the occasion. Golden Wedding Anniversary Camellias, Ranunculus, and Dahlias are lovely choices for patios and gardens. For cool rooms and conservatories, try Flowering Broom and Daffodils. And for those living with sight loss, why not request a vibrant yellow colour palette in your Spring Planter to bring joy.

Yellow Plant Care
As a plant parent, you’ll find your plants will thrive best in slightly different positions and with slight different care. At Plants4Presents we make plant care easy, we always include a full set of care instructions covering light, water, temperature, and pruning and we’re always at the end of the phone too. As a general guide of the kind of care our plants need we’ve included a few of our most popular yellow plants below as examples.
Broom
- Light: Full sun or bright position
- Water: Water deeply but infrequently and allow the soil to dry between waterings
- Pruning: Lightly prune after flowering to maintain shape and encourage new growth
Daffodils
- Light: Bright light or full sun where possible
- Water: Water after planting and during dry spells, but avoid overwatering to prevent bulb rot
- Pruning: After flowering, let the foliage die back naturally, as this helps the bulb store energy for next season
Roses
- Light: At least 6 hours of sunlight per day
- Water: Deep, infrequent watering (e.g., once or twice weekly) more in hot weather
- Pruning: Deadhead spent blooms to encourage more flowering

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I ensure the plant I receive is yellow?
Some plants are available in multiple colours. To make sure you get a yellow hue, look for a plant option dropdown menu if available, or add a note in the "Any Special Requests" box specifying your colour choice. Yellow plants are popular year round, but certain species peak at particular seasons. For example Daffodils are usually classic for winter, Acacia and Flowering Broom perform well in spring and Dahlias bloom in late summer.
Can I send a yellow flowering plant as a gift, and can I include a message?
Yes, absolutely. Each yellow plant gift will be gift wrapped and a card with your personal message can be added. Don't forget to choose your pot to pair with your plant from the "Free Container" drop down menu.
Can I request a yellow themed planter?
Yes! Our planters are made fresh on a daily basis at our nursery. You can request a palette of yellows (or yellows mixed with oranges etc.) in the special instructions, and we’ll arrange accordingly.
