Good to know: Plants of Pavonia burchellii in the horticultural trade are all wrongly labelled and are indeed Abutilon mauritianum. These can be tracked back to a German wholesale company which has been distributing wrongly identified seeds. As a matter of fact, true Pavonia burchellii is not in cultivation. We offer seeds from our own correctly identified plants under their true name of Abutilon mauritianum.
