Instead of showing you the yellows of fall today, I am showing you the yellows of last spring that I had not posted yet. Yes, the glorious forsythias! And this spring they were lovelier than ever, huge splashes of yellow all around town. See Phil with our own forsythia? It is tiny, but he really loves it. Ella says the blooms look like the peel after a banana has been peeled, see how right on the mark she is? A banana peel bush! Forsythia means anticipation, and I anticipate them greatly each spring. What do you anticipate?
“Pay close attention
now: I’m creating new heavens and a new earth. All the earlier troubles, chaos,
and pain are things of the past, to be forgotten. Look ahead with joy. Anticipate what I’m creating…”

oh my gosh they are amazing and do look like banana peels!
So lovely... the bright yellow really lightens up the whole area! Love them!
HI Ginny That are a ray of sunshine. Today I have organised a reunion with my nursing friends so i anticipate there were be great fun, lots of talk and memories shared. Tomorrow is another day.
I never realized just how much they look like a banana peel. Ella is very observant. I always look forward to seeing my forsythia bloom every spring. they are pretty
One of my favorite spring sightings! They are beautiful.
Best,
Bonnie
I really like the header with the yellow truck!
they are STUNNING, i have never seen these before... I LOVE THEM really I do and yours is beautiful. i like that yellow truck trying to hide in the yellow flowers. my kind of photo
We have a Forsythia bush too. One of my favorite signs of spring.
They were sure glorious!
You really brightened my day with all that pretty yellow. I love your header too. Your question, that is a wood carving of an acorn.
How beautiful! I love the bright yellow color, it sure is glorious!
Ella has such a wonderful imagination. They do look like banana being peeled!
I think Ella came up with a great name for these gorgeous bushes. The forsythias in our yard are also small, but we really look forward to seeing them each Spring.
Those 'banana peel' bushes sure light up the early spring scene.
I love the yellows, so pretty
What nice blossoms. We once had such a plant in the garden but unfortunately it died.
Greetings,

Hi Ginny, Forsythia are some of my favorite of the flowering shrubs or hedge plants. So lovely when massed. I will likely miss seeing these as they probably are not tropical enough for the Central Florida climate, but who knows? Have a fine day tomorrow!
Such a burst of happy color.
They are gorgeous, Ginny! A ray of sunshine.
Oh my goodness, it's like a sea of yellow. I love seeing the forsythia each spring but I usually only see small bushes like the one next to Phil. I don't think I have ever seen so many at one time before.
It does look like a banana peel.
Love that truck!
I agree with Ella, yellow banana peel. I have a burning (red) bush that would look nice against your banana peel bush. I was enjoying some of last years pictures yesterday, but only looking for Spring, lol
Kind of makes you feel good -to see all the beautiful flowers - I love yellow! sandie
