like Sweet Peas, it's fragrant....The Latin Name:
" Genista Racemosa " It grows into a 7ft X 7ft Shrub.

Shelagh..

It's beautiful, I think in this
country they call that one Spanish Broom,
it's tall , the one I bought grows like a
shrub, I bought my sister-in-law one for
her garden in New York State( She has 3 acres)
I just mailed it to her today, I know she'll love
it.. You take great photos..

Cheers..Joe

Three years ago, we went back to Scotland and stayed in a chalet on the banks of Loch Lomond. I took this photo from the deck at the front of the chalet:

Looks like a forsythia bush.

I have a photo of a forsythia in my garden in Scotland. I'll scan it.
