The message
from "Smeckler" contains these words:

This should be an easy one (?)

What's 'the other' yellow shrub that comes out in early spring, i.e. the
one that's not Forsythia?
The flowers are roughly spherical and a bit more orangey than
Forsythia's. The stems are numerous, thin and upright.

Sounds like one of the burberis clan. I have one in the new abode's garden.
