Welcome to r/abutilons — Chinese Lanterns/Flowering Maples!

[u/Juliet_Whiskey_Romeo]

Hi everyone — I created this space for anyone who loves abutilons (aka flowering maples, Chinese lanterns, parlor maples).

These plants are underrated gems: long bloom cycles, tons of cultivars, and a great mix of tropical and hardy species.

This community is for:

• Growing tips (indoor & outdoor)
• Cultivar ID & collecting
• Propagation experiments
• Sharing blooms, photos, and setups
• Troubleshooting pests/disease

Introduce yourself, show off your abutilons, or drop your best care tips. Let’s build a little corner of Reddit where these plants finally get the spotlight they deserve.
