I have been looking for the name of this shrub for years..As a child while living in New Jersey, we had a long drive with a hedgerow on one side and a field of wild flowers on the other…I can remember this shrub and its brilliant green stems and bright flower pods, and I remember thinking they looked like a turks turban..Never knew the name…Now if I can find the seed…I will be happy….
