What Makes Abutilon Lucky Lantern Special?

Abutilon Lucky Lantern is a standout compact selection within the abutilon plant genus. Each plant forms a neat, bushy shape (typically reaching up to 50cm tall), loaded for months with nodding, bell-shaped blossoms in striking shades such as red, orange, yellow, pink, and white. Unlike traditional abutilons, Lucky Lantern varieties are bred to stay small and manageable, perfect for growing in containers, along pathways, or as low hedging.

The Abutilon Lucky Lantern series is loved for its extended flowering season—often from spring well into late autumn. This brings constant colour, making it a top pick for patio displays and small urban gardens.

Growing and Caring for Abutilon Lucky Lantern

Abutilon Lucky Lantern is remarkably easy to grow in most New Zealand climates. Plant them in well-drained soil in a sunny to partially shaded spot for the best show. These abutilons thrive with regular watering and a light feed in spring. They also respond well to tip-pruning, which encourages bushiness and even more blooms.

Because of their compact growth, Lucky Lanterns are ideal for pots—try grouping them with other varieties of abutilon, such as Abutilon Orange for warm-toned garden beds, or Abutilon Lucky Lantern White for elegant, soft-coloured borders.

Beyond Lucky Lantern: Discover the Abutilon Range
