Linda  --  Does this fit your concept of deep yellow?  The first photo is a 
younger blossom after a night of rain at about 2:30 pm.  (You can see a 
couple of rain drops and an insect sheltering beneath one of the falls.) 
The second photo, taken at the same time, is an older blossom.  We've had 2 
days of alternating rain and bright sunshine. All blossoms in the clump are 
unfaded.  --  Griff
