I'd bet on GOLD REPRISE. Mass plantings with careless care
sound perfect. It even tries to rebloom here in Texas
after extended droughts and no care and has actually
succeeded in doing so, it's vigorous and has been a
reliable moderately heavy bloomer in the spring. I'd call
it gold rather than yellow. It's sunflower bright.
