Limit height of flexbox item [duplicate]

Question

I have a flexbox with 2 items, direction=row. The text content of the second item is very long. I would like the second item to be as high as the first item, and have a scrollbar. Is this possible?

#wrap { display: flex; }
#item-1 { height: 100px; background: orange; flex: 1; }
#item-2 { overflow: scroll; flex: 1; }

<div id='wrap'>
  <div id='item-1'></div>
  <div id='item-2'>  
I would like this text to have a scrollbar, and thus not take up more height than the orange box.<br> I would like this text to have a scrollbar, and thus not take up more height than the orange box.<br> I would like this text to have a scrollbar, and thus not take up more height than the orange box.<br> I would like this text to have a scrollbar, and thus not take up more height than the orange box.<br> I would like this text to have a scrollbar, and thus not take up more height than the orange box.<br> I would like this text to have a scrollbar, and thus not take up more height than the orange box.<br> I would like this text to have a scrollbar, and thus not take up more height than the orange box.<br>

The closest post I've found is this one, but the answer doesn't seem to work in my case.

Add a wrapper having position: absolute

Now, you can set a min-height to the left most, which the height of the right most will follow.

#wrap { display: flex; }
#item-1 { min-height: 100px; background: orange; flex: 1; }
#item-2 { position: relative; flex: 1; }
#item-wrap { 
  position: absolute; 
  left: 0; top: 0; 
  right: 0; bottom: 0;
  overflow: auto; 
}

<div id='wrap'>
  <div id='item-1'>
    If this gets longer, right most follows<br>
    If this gets longer, right most follows<br>
    If this gets longer, right most follows<br>
    If this gets longer, right most follows<br>

    If this gets longer, right most follows<br>

  </div>
  <div id='item-2'>
