Yellow Flowers That Palmetto Bugs Like

The palmetto bug, otherwise known as the American cockroach (Periplameta Americana), is the largest common species of cockroach, according to Jefferson Davis Community College. These reddish-brown bugs have a pale brown to light yellow border and well developed wings although they rarely fly. Palmetto bugs like shady, moist locations, such as woodpiles, trees and ground cover plants with a low-growing, spreading formation. Many species of ground cover blossom with yellow flowers.

Its simple medium green foliage has an opposite arrangement and an ovate shape. Landscapers use this plant is an ornamental vine and ground cover. Bougainvillea (Bougainvillea spp.) is a semi-evergreen to evergreen vine with a creeping formation that covers other plants. This woody plant has grayish-green bark with purple markings and sharp thorns. In the summer, small paper-thin flowers develop in multiple colors, including yellow.

This ornamental is typically used as a ground cover for slopes, trained trellises and hedges.
