Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Similar to the species, but with yellow flowers.
I love this shrub. It is one of those see through plants that are so popular right now. The foliage is so threadlike and airy that you can see right through it to other plants beyond. The flowers are showy though. Large creamy yellow flowers grace this plant Spring-Summer. Gets to be 6-8’ tall and is narrow, only about 3’ wide. Very graceful.
