I am not 100% sure - but this came out just now - later than the D. chryseopsis. It is taller, larger and more golden than the more lemony colour of chryseopsis.

Thanks - that is great. I will keep searching for others. I had the impression, that in another spot not far away, there was another one... but I put it down to a large chryseopsis. Will be more careful in the future.
