Abutilon Yellow

Abutilon Yellow is a delightful variety of the Flowering Maple, celebrated for its yellow, bell-shaped flowers that appear from spring through to autumn. These charming flowers are complemented by the plant’s lush, green, maple-like foliage, making it a versatile choice for adding gentle colour and texture to the garden.

Perfect for mixed borders, patio pots, or as a feature in cottage, subtropical, or wildlife-friendly gardens. Thrives in full sun to partial shade and prefers well-drained soil with regular moisture. Allow approximately 50 cm spacing between plants if used in garden beds to encourage healthy growth.

At maturity, Abutilon Pink grows to a manageable size of 1–2 metres in height and width, making it suitable for both smaller gardens and larger landscapes. Light pruning after flowering helps to maintain its shape and promote further flowering

Trimming: Prune Abutilon in early spring to maintain shape and encourage healthy growth. Remove any dead or damaged branches, and lightly trim throughout the growing season if needed.

Deadheading: Regularly remove spent flowers to prolong flowering and keep the plant tidy.

Fertilising: Feed with a balanced, liquid fertiliser every 4–6 weeks during the growing season to support vigorous growth and flowering. Reduce feeding in winter.

Watering: Keep soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Water deeply during dry periods, particularly in hot weather or for container-grown plants.

Pest Control: Check for common pests like aphids, whiteflies, and spider mites. Use insecticidal soap or neem oil to manage infestations.

Disease Management: Abutilon may be prone to powdery mildew and rust in humid conditions. Ensure good air circulation, avoid overhead watering, and treat with fungicide if necessary. Remove and dispose of affected leaves promptly.
