I've deleted "Velvetleaf Abutilon" as a common name as I cannot find any actual usage of this name; all references I can find refer to this species simply as "Velvetleaf" (or "velvet leaf" or "velvet-leaf"). Not even the New Royal Horticultural Society Dictionary of Gardening or Mabberley's The Plant Book (which cannot by any stretch of the imagination be called USA-centric) list "Velvetleaf Abutilon" among the several common names they give for this species.
