Abutilon pictum 'Thompsonii'
Family: Malvaceae
Common Name(s):
Grown by: Kristen Yanker-Hansen, Danville

This is a must for collectors of variegated plants as this flowering maple cultivar has showy, creamy-yellow variegation which contrasts with its bright orange flowers. It can get 12 feet tall but has a narrow arching form. Abutilons are quite drought tolerant in shade, but need supplemental water in a more sunny location.
