Yellow, yellow
Click for bigger, more yellow
This glass sculpture by Dale Chihuly was displayed at the Kew Gardens orchid festival in March. I liked it for it's brightness and complexity and density and roundness, but it didn't feel right alongside the lush, fragile, pastel orchids. I can't think they were the kind of thing the artist was alluding to. It came back to me, though, when I saw the bright bush, with all those same qualities, flowering in my street.
Jude asks what the bush is. I think it's Kerria japonica 'Pleniflora'. ¶ 12:49 pm

The sculpture really does look like that bush!
I keep thinking what a pain it must have been to move and hang it without breaking it.

Whilst scrolling I came across the picture of yellow bush. I have been looking for the name of this so that I can plant one in my garden. Thank you.
