please identify this plant

Looks like abutilon

also called Chinese lantern

and also flowering maple, Indian mallow

Abutilon; Many plants were offered for sale on this flower show. It did not attract me enough to buy some. To me it looked like a poor cousin of Hibiscus.

It is best grown under semi shade..

Arif sb you are right it does like a poor cousin of the habiscus family, i was going to use it for the spring beds till september, do they survive direct sun since most of my beds get 6-8 hours of direct sun light if not any alternative plants i could use for covering the beds till september.
