One of the diagnostics is the beige to yellowish felting on the backs of the leaves. Please comment.
How tall was it? What was the diameter of the flowers?

Zooming in on my photos, there seems to be a yellow felting underneath the leaves and the new leaves are a felted grey on top. The leaves reminded us of a Rhododendron, which is why we took the photos (not knowing what an Olearia was back in 2008). The height would have been around 1-1.2 metres and the flowers were largish, approx. 3cm.
