This is another plant given to Ray some time ago and he'd like to have the
name of it if anyone can help, please. *It's a really wonderful Abutilon -
a gorgeous clear red and very strong growing. *In the larger mass picture,
it's right up to the greenhouse roof. *The leaves can be seen fairly well
I think and are a darkish green.

I'm no expert but are you sure it's not a Hibiscus?

It is Abutilon, I had one the same colour when I lived in England.
Unfortunately; it was given to me by a former colleague who has no
idea of it's origin.
