As far as I know, N. glauca always has that greenish yellow flower color.
It's also quite toxic; there have been several deaths from ingestion
(the nicotine content is very high).  In addition, the California Exotic
Plant Pest Council of The Nature Conservancy has it on their "Exotic
Pest Plants of Greatest Concern" list... in the same rating category
as canada thistle.
