Foliage plant ID please

This is in a municipal planting in the town near where I’m staying (eastern France.)
It’s cascading over the edge of the planter. It would look great in a hanging basket.
Any ideas what it is?

One of the variegated Abutilons?

Thanks everyone. I was a bit confused about this plant as the one I saw didn’t have flowers. 😊

Not all plants flower when they are young.
Many do not flower in the first year.
OR
maybe you missed a flower.
in your pic is a touch of orange...a dead petal maybe????

Thanks very much. Some flowers here are out at different times to the UK. My friend’s hibiscus is covered in seed heads (and ‘gendarmes.’) 😊

I recognise those beetles...Pyrrhocoris apterus....common name firebugs

It would help if you could show your home town /country somewhere on your posts.
I eventually managed to put my details at the bottom.

I keep trying to edit my profile- to no avail 😠

@Lyn Plant-Wells - try adding it to the signature strip at the bottom. A couple of people had the same problem with the profile option not long ago, and they found they could do it that way instead. 

Glad you got the plant ID-d  too.
