Abutilon ‘Biltmore Ballgown’
We went to Brookside Gardens this afternoon. There wasn’t a lot in bloom outdoors but even so, it’s a nice place to walk on a early autumn afternoon, especially on as nice a day as today. Before that walk, as usual, we went into the conservatory.
This plant, labeled Abutilon, also called flowering maple, is a variety called ‘Biltmore Ballgown’ and is quite pretty. The flowering maples have recently been reclassified in the the genus Callianthe, however.
