We've received inquiries overnight as to the genus of the unusual brilliant yellow plant that appeared in yesterday's Emily post. We've owned the backyard beauty for quite a while, it burst out overnight this week, apparently timed with the summer solstice. We don't know its name, we may have to give it one, unless a sharp-eyed reader can identify it for us. The plant lasts a long time, very durable. We know there are floral experts reading this blog.
