    I have collected the seeds of my Abutilon Vitifolium, (It has blue flowers)!

    Would the flowers of the seeds I plant come true to the parent plant, or would the colour be pot luck?

    Over to you guys out there!

    Any info would be appreciated

    PS I am an amateur gardener, growing for pleasuire, not a professional bread head nursery or whatever!

    Bestest regards to all.

    Often some seedlings will be white-flowered.

    Thanks for your prompt reply Ron,

    Thats exactly what I wanted to hear, as I have a white one, as well as the blue one, and my gardening friends envy my white one!

    So, with any luck, I'll be able to farm out freebies to them, and, with luck they will be white ones!


    Cheers Ron,

    Bestest regards,

    KEN.
