ABUTILON "Kentish belle" (named by Keith & Kate)

Ray's Garden, July 2012.   Peter discovered this plant.   You can almost hear its bells chiming.   It seems to be very hardy and survives from year to year.

Looks a bit like the Chinese Lantern.

We have this plant, Ray, and kept the tag from the nursery. It is Abutilon, or Flowering Maple. Yes, very unusual flowers.

Wow! I need to add this to my landscaping. I usually don't like yellow, but this is spectacular!

Looks like Abutilon 'Kentish Belle', Malvaceae - Chinese lanterns are Abutilons too. Hibiscus is another member of the Malvaceae family.

I doubt you are familiar with American football, Ray, but those are my favorite team's colors! Burgundy and gold, Washington Redskins! I MUST find this plant!
