Worried about oil plant (8) A . U . I . O .

The only thing I can find that fits is ABUTILON, which is a plant, but I can't figure out why!

Thanks, J

Janie the concensus on other sites is thats its either a poor attempt at an anagram or;

About + Lin (an old name for the linseed plant which produces oil)

Mamya,
You say \"the consensus on other sites\" - would you tell me some of those?

Don`t want to appear disloyal to this site but my other haunt is The Answerbank, if you google that it will take you there, very different to here , but useful if you need a different opinion.
