Anthony
I think the correct name is Genista pilosa "Vancouver Gold"
The most important part of a garden is the one who enjoys it.

Quite correct Arie. It is amazing how you see what you think is there but isn't.

Oh wow!!!!  That's about all I can come up with!  Some stunning plants in here, many I've not seen before (which is so often the case here on the SRGC forums).  Always nice to be learning new things.  Thanks.
Cheers.
