Chinese Lantern, Chinese Bellflower, Flowering Maple
Abutilon hybrids
RARE. Unique, hard-to-find small woody shrubs from the tropics with delightful flowers with extended periods of blooming. These beauties prefer full sun and moist, well-draining soil. Use them in annuals beds, porch pots, or even hanging baskets where the flowers can be easily enjoyed.
Low maintenance. To keep them nice and compact, they can be pruned in late fall or early spring.
Tender perennials, they are hardy to zone 9 (20F) - they can be overwintered indoors, but prefer temperatures around 60F.
