The 1917 caption reads: “Bending down a branch of the Laburnum tree- Queen of the May - Story - Simple Susan.” Simple Susan was written by Maria Edgeworth (died 1849), a prolific Anglo-Irish novelist of adults' and children's literature. She was one of the first realist writers in children's literature and was a significant figure in the evolution of the novel in Europe, and Louey Chisholm, a prolific children’s book writer. The bright yellow flowers hang in pendulous racemes up to 25 cm (10 inches) in length and produce pods that are slender and compressed. All parts of laburnums are poisonous, especially the seeds, and occasionally the plants have proved fatal to cattle, though hares and rabbits are unharmed.
