Abutilon pictum is a member of the Malvaceae family (mallow family). It is a native to Brazil, Argentina, Paraguay, and Uruguay. This shrub will grow to 5 m tall, with leaves 5–15 cm long, three to five- (rarely seven-) lobed. The flowers are yellow to red, with five petals 2–4 cm long and will flower year round.
This plant is often compared to its cousin, the Hibiscus, but surpasses it in consistency of growth.
