Abutilon Canary

This yellow-flowered abutilon offers soft, maple-like foliage and hanging blooms with a wonderfully light appearance. The flowers add cheerful colour without the visual weight of a dense bedding display. Its relaxed branching suits a sheltered wall or a generous container, where the bells can hang freely. A lovely choice for extending the feeling of summer into a protected corner.

Growing conditions:
Grow in sun or bright partial shade in fertile, well-drained soil or potting compost, watering regularly during growth. Give it frost-free winter protection outside the mildest sheltered gardens.

Maximum size:
If supplied as the commonly grown ‘Canary Bird’, allow approximately 250–400 cm tall and wide when unpruned; container plants can be maintained smaller.
