Abutilon Megapotamicum | 3L Pot (60cm Cane)

Bell shaped flowers from summer to autumn. Position: full sun Soil: moderately fertile, freely draining Rate of growth: average Flowering period: June to October Hardiness: half hardy (will need protection in winter) An unusual (and very pretty) addition to a sunny, sheltered garden, this Brazilian shrub has slender arching stems that are clothed in large (to 12cm long) fresh green leaves, and bell-shaped red and yellow flowers, throughout the summer and into autumn. It’s ideal for growing against a south-facing wall, but it can also be grown in a large pot and overwintered in the conservatory. Garden care: Lightly trim back shoots that spoil the symmetry in mid- or late spring. Water freely during the summer months, but keep drier and protect from low temperatures in winter.
