About This Plant
Abutilon 'Lucky Lantern Yellow' (Flowering Maple), 'Lucky Lantern Yellow', is valued in PNW gardens for its character and seasonal interest.
Flowering Maples (Abutilon) are tropical / subtropical shrubs with maple-shaped leaves and pendulous bell-shaped flowers in red, orange, yellow, or pink. Hummingbird favorites; outstanding container or sheltered-bed shrubs in PNW.
Full sun to part shade suits this species. Plant in moist, well-drained, fertile soil. Hardy USDA Zone 8 to 11. Marginally hardy in zone 8 PNW; site in warmest exposure or treat as a container plant. Watch for whitefly indoors.
