"Rose of Sharon"

On a recent visit to the UK I saw a beautiful shrub about 6 feet tall and
wide, covered with beatiful yellow flowers (this was end of July, beginning
of August) which had wide petals and kind of thread like puffs in the
middle. I saw these in such far apart places as Eastbourne and Lancaster,
and they were not uncommon - I mean almost every other garden had them. When
I asked what they were I was told "Rose of Sharon", but when I look this up
it's a pink flowered shrub. Any suggestions on what it was I saw? I suspect
whatever it was wouldn't be hardy to Montreal, but I'd love to know what it was.

Thanks.

Ann
