Description
Abutilon ‘Nabob’ is an evergreen shrub to or small tree featuring very dark, maple-like leaves and nodding, 3″ dark red blooms. Attracts hummingbirds.
Abutilons are very heat tolerant, making them excellent for summer gardens or containers in the hot sun. Provide winter protection in cooler climates. They thrive in well-drained soil with occasional feedings. Pinch the young leaf stems to encourage more branching. Prune lightly to shape and remove dead stems.
