This beautiful example of California Glory, Fremontodendron califonicum ,grows in the Gardens of the World. Thousand Oaks , California
California Glory also known as the California flannelbush, or, California slippery elm is cultivated as an ornamental plant in gardens. The flowers are yellow and each petal has an attractive, curved shape that comes to a point. The bark bears a gooey sap that was once used as a topical remedy for mucous membrane irritation and for gastrointestinal upset. However, the hairs covering the leaves are easily brushed off and are a skin and eye irritant.
