Skyflower…

Skyflower is the common name I prefer to call this shrub; the flowers look like a mixture of clear sky rimmed with clouds. Golden Dewdrop (Duranta erecta) is the more common name; so named for the golden berries that follow its flowering. The flowers are quite small, less an inch in diameter,  so could easily be ignored by most passing by this shrub. Copyright 2024 Pamela Breitberg
The clusters of Skyflowers tell me that Golden Dewdrops will be a pretty and new show in a few months. Another instance of my need to return to see the next “show”. Copyright 2024 Pamela Breitberg

Sky flowers become

Golden Dewdrops afterwards

Two names seem perfect.
