Description

These evergreen shrubs usually grow to 8-10' tall and wide. Most will tolerate frost to 25 degrees F or lower, with some damage. All are irresistible to hummingbirds with their showy flowers and heavy nectar production. Abutilon prefers shade and moderate amount of water in inland warm areas. They make an excellent plant for containers. -Monterey Bay Nursery
