May I suggest globe flower, trollius europeaus? Flowers in late spring/early summer, lemon side of yellow, clump forming but not invasive. I grow it in several places and it does well here in damp through to normal soil, even in dappled shade beneath trees but probably not good for a too dry site.

I'd give fennel a go. It won't mind a wee bit of shade. Wild rocket would be perfectly happy. Great for pollinators and very tough, not like the usual one. I grow Ligularia Britt-Marie Crawford which would also be fine [as per the other one mentioned] but the flowers are more gold than yellow. I love it, but the slugs do as well unfortunately, as the foliage is very striking. I have a small plant spare if you want to try it.
It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
I can recommend Argyranthemum 'Jamaica Primrose'. It has feathery leaves, grows quite tall and has lovely soft buttery yellow flowers. I think it would do well in your situation. It will last until the first frosts but cuttings take really easily.
Not a perennial, but I grow bushy salvia Lemon Pie which is a lovely, delicate lemon/cream. Many such salvias deal with only afternoon sun remarkably well. Not sure if they will be hardy so far north.
I've got the Helianthus Lemon Queen as well,it's well over 2mtr,great for late colour. There are some nice yellow geums,and ranunculus for ground cover. Primroses, lots of different yellows.A mollis is green.
Not tall but we grow winter aconites in heavy clay soil in partial shade. Whilst named "winter" they usually come up mid Spring with lovely yellow flowers. We now have a huge clump of them and they look great near ferns and a small lily pond.

Oh that's pretty. Reminds me of a fat buttercup.
