Abutilon megapotamicum Details

Abutilon megapotamicum, commonly known as Brazilian Bellflower, Trailing Abutilon, or Flowering Maple, is an elegant shrub grown for its showy, lantern-shaped flowers. The red and yellow flowers are produced from spring through autumn and is complemented with lush, dark green foliage that serves as a pleasant backdrop. The Brazilian Bellflower typically grows to 1.2 m tall and the same wide and responds well to trimming which encourages fresh, new growth. It grows best when planted in full sun or partial shade on a well-drained site, and will tolerate moderate frost and cool climates though it will tend to be deciduous in these environments. Abutilon megapotamicum is commonly included in mixed plantings, used as a backdrop for smaller plants, planted around outdoor living areas, added to cottage gardens, or maintained in a container.
