I think I've identified this plant, but I'm no expert. Anyone know this unusual beauty? There's nothing in the database I can match it to.

I believe this is Schaueria calycotricha

It's certainly close! The leaves are different, and the bloom is larger on mine. Certainly part of this family, though! Thank you!

Perhaps in the database it will be Golden Plume (Schaueria calytricha)

The one in the database showed broader leaves, while most variety in the garden have narrower leaves

I did look at this too, but there were too many differences when I looked further. Thank you for looking into it, I do appreciate it! It's not imperative I know it's name, just a preference. Thank You!
