The leaf looks like a maple tree leaf and the flower looks like a single hollyhock or Hibiscus and blooms year round. It can grow quite tall.

I LOVED my flowering maple! Here on the West (wet) Coast of Canada it is considered a "tender" Perennial. I think it lasted about 3-4 yrs. Before one long, cold winter killed it. I "keep meaning" to get another. If you check out the websites of reputable Growers, they would probably ship one to you.

I bought an abutilon about a month ago at Walmart.
