Abutilon hulseanum, the mauve or red Indian mallow, is a species of flowering plant in the family Malvaceae. [2] [1]
Abutilon hulseanum is a short-lived perennial shrub growing to 7 ft (2.1 m). Its showy orange-pink flowers bloom from late winter to early spring. [2] [3]
It is native to New Mexico, Texas, Florida, most of Mexico, Honduras, Cuba, Jamaica, Puerto Rico, the Leeward Islands, and the Windward Islands. [1] In some contexts it is an invasive weedy plant, and adapts readily to disturbed habitats, such as old orange groves. [2] [4] [5]
