You may remember that some years ago I had 2 Abutilon, one yellow and
one red, the red one was Westfield Bronze, could it be that, they
certainly look similar.

Westfield Bronze has variegated leaves and red flowers, well the one
David Hill gave me has! We have an unknown red (came back from Madeira)
which looks a lot like this but there are rather a lot of abutilon
cultivars

The Westfield Bronze I have as Charlie said has variegated foliage, I
have had it now since the early 60's and I have never had a green leaf
sport.
