This is the last one for now. I'm going to be telling a story on myself.
I was at this nursery and found what I considered to be the perfect plant that would do well in my garden. I got home planted it, nurtured it, and it died.
The next spring when I was walking in the hills, I realized that I'd had the plant all along. Out here they called it Scots' Broom, because the stems of the plant made great brooms, I guess. They could be used like that if someone needed to make a broom.
Wait, one more after this for a close up of the blossoms.
