I learned it as "golden phlox," and, yes, it's a flower...

I got my copy of this (on a Kingston Trio LP--don't remember which one) for about a dollar at a used record store. Those stores aren't as plentiful as they used to be, but they're still around, and worth checking out on occasion--especially if you have, shall we say, 'out of the mainstream' musical tastes.
