"....... Ah, memories of my youth in the Irish hills and the prickly gorse
bush with it's gorgeous yellow flower that blankets the landscape. So any
chance it might grow here in the US, Zone 6??? ......."

Wild Gorse is a menace though the old Welsh saying is that "Kissing is in
season whilst Gorse is in flower" the seed pods burst explosively throwing
the seed up to 20 ft or so.BUT
There is a very nice Double form which is sterile so no fear of seeds or
spreading.
