There are lots of different looking ones. All are fun and hummingbirds just love them.

You are right Pepper, they all do. Here is another one I took a picture of tonight. The colors are so vivd. This is a mini. And the bright yellow ages to orange and reddish. When there are a lot of them all together in different colors, it is just great. One of my favs.

Your mini bi-coloured abutilon is SO incredibly lovely, Kell! No wonder, it's a fav of yours.
I'm curious to know if your semi-closed downward facing flowers form seeds? You say hummingbirds visit the flowers so perhaps they act as pollinators. Or have you seen bees visiting them too?

I do not know about bees but I bet they do. Yes, they all form seed pods.
