Fremontodendron 'Pacific Sunset'

Fabulous tall evergreen for the dry garden with fuzzy leaves that reflect the common name and, over a long period in spring, bold yellow flowers. 15-20 feet tall and nearly as wide in ideal conditions with very good drainage in sandy soil and NO summer water after the second year. Need we say bold statement?  Frost hardy in USDA zone 8.
