Botanical Description
Corynabutilon ochsenii is a much-branched, evergreen shrub that can grow 3.5 metres or more tall. In colder winters it is likely to become deciduous, or the soft-wooded stems may even be cut back to the ground. The plant is often grown as an ornamental in gardens, having the added bonus of tasty, edible flowers.
