It's very tall (at least 6-8 feet for some), with leafless (appearing) thin branches rising straight up, with orange and red flowers at the very tip. They were blooming on our trip West at the end of May and flowerless on our trip East at the end of June. We observed it only in the Western portion of the state while traveling on Highway 70. Can you help us identify this gorgeous plant? Will send a picture if you need it. Thank you We recently passed through Western Arizona and saw a beautiful shrub we can’t identify.
