Abutilon hybridum, known as the Chinese Lantern, Chinese Bell Flower or Flowering Maple, is a lovely flowering perennial shrub that is grown for its many coloured flowers. It is thought to originate from Brazil despite some of its common names.
It is a fast growing, evergreen shrub that grows to around 2 metres tall but is normally much shorter than that.
Has oval, light to medium green leaves 10-20cm long. Leaves are maple-like in appearance.
Grown for showy, pendent, bell-shaped flowers in red, yellow, white, orange from spring through to autumn but also can appear at other times of the year. The packet of seeds contains a mix of these colours.
Frost tender but can be grown indoors or in containers in cool climates.
For sale is a packet of 20 seeds.
ALL SEED PACKAGES COME WITH A SET OF SEED PROPAGATION INSTRUCTIONS.
Combined Postage/Shipping:
If you purchase multiple packets of seeds then they will be posted/shipped in the cheapest envelope or parcel rate available. What you pay is what Australia Post charges me, plus a small handling fee to cover packing materials. Final postage total does depend on the seed varieties purchased as some species have larger/heavier seeds than others so cost more to post. I don't automatically charge extra for each purchase and in many cases a number of packets of seeds can be posted/shipped for just the one initial postage charge.
To get combined postage just make each purchase on Ebay but don't press the 'Pay Now' button after each purchase. Once you have finished buying, then press the 'Pay Now' button and an option appears at the top that says 'Request Total'. Press this one and I then get an email to tell me to combine the items into one invoice for combined postage. I then send you a final invoice for payment.
Payment Options:
Australian buyers: Paypal, Bank Deposit or Money Order.
International buyers: Paypal is the only payment method accepted.
