What is the name of this yellow flower?

We ate a couple of times at this restaurant called Il Camino between Terni and Spoleto in Umbria. One night they gave us a little thing of flowers. It was yellow and the flowers were small and kind of poofy. I meant to ask what it was called, but forgot. It seemed like they grew sort of like baby's breath. Any clue what it might be called?

What is the name of this yellow flower?
I think you were given "mimosa": They are one of the first flowers of spring here in Italy and they are usually given out on March 8th, women's day. Here is a picture:

Reply:i think i know what your talking about. but its not clear, i mean these flowers you were given were edible or non edible? the ones i think you are talking about are non edible are given in some what like branches of them not one by one. the custom is that every woman is given one on the Day of the Women, which is celebrated i think in april, or around that period. so its common to see the ladies walking aroudn holding one on that special day. however, if i knew the name of the flower, id tell you, but if it comes to mind later on ill write it down.
Reply:the only flower i can think of, which is also yellow and a little bit poofy is taraxacum. which is eatable in salads and soups but mostly it's leaves are tasty. try to be more specific explaining how is that flower, maybe i will remember something ells, if no, i can cheek it for u in here.





try to copy the name of the flower and cheek if u recognize it in the images of yahoo.








Nice Nasturtiums





Watercress is cultivated mainly in Southern England and can also be found near fast-flowing streams. It is available all year round and its pungent peppery flavour adds a kick to salads.








* maybe its erba iva??? that is a small small flower yellow and wight, it has a great tast, bitter-sweet and u can put it in soups and salads and mostly fix a great alpin tea?








* or.... hehehe achillea????








* what the last answer u have recived is talking about is the mimosa, but it's not eatable.
Reply:I'm guessing but it was possibly courgette flowers as they are quite a delicacy in Italy. Usually they're dipped in a light batter and quickly deep fried. Not sure what baby's breath is.





Update: Ah, if they're tiny, probably not what I suggested then.
Reply:Another possible answer is "nasturtiums", a yellow or orange flower. They grow almost like a weed, very quickly, that is. They don't have a sweet scent, but they have a beautiful flower...

Is there a plant or flower named Dewey?

My sweet dog is old and dying. He is being put to rest on Thursday. His name is Dewey. I was wondering if there is a plant or flower named Dewey that I could plant next to him? Does anyone know?

Is there a plant or flower named Dewey?
So sorry. Thats a sweet thing you are doing. Here is what I found along with the sites.





A plant named "Dewey Blue". It's Ornamental grass.





A plant named "Dewey's sedge" It's Perennial Grass-like.
Reply:no but I'm sorry to hear about your loss
Reply:"Dewey Blue" is the common nickname for an ornamental beach grass (Panicum amarum). It grows to about 3 feet tall and has pretty blue flowers at the end of the summer. It usually grows in sandy locations from coastal Connecticut down to Florida. If you live in a climate that can tolerate it, you can plant it in a sandy container, rather than directly in the ground. Your local garden supply center probably has an assortment of attractive containers.





I am very sorry for the loss of your dog, I hope this information helps.
