Pavonia × gledhillii is an evergreen flowering plant in the mallow family, Malvaceae.
The generic name honours Spanish botanist José Antonio Pavón Jiménez (1754–1844).
[1] The epithet gledhillii come from Dr. David Gledhill, curator in 1989 of University of Bristol Botanic Garden.
This subshrub is intermediate between the two species of origin in almost all respects, but it has nine to ten equal broad bracts and sub-entire leaf margins.
The unusual flowers are purple-grey enclosed within a bright red calyx.
