Description

Ixora is a dense, multi-branched evergreen shrub with 1.2-2 m in height. Ixora has a rounded form, with a spread that may exceed its height. The glossy, leathery, oblong leaves are about 10 cm long. Small tubular, scarlet flowers in dense rounded clusters 5-13 cm across are produced almost all year long. There are numerous named cultivars differing in flower color (yellow, pink, orange) and plant size.It is moderately salt tolerant, but not at all tolerant of alkaline soils, which will cause the leaves to become chlorotic (yellowish). To be planted in acidic soil, fed with a high nitrogen fertilizer and mulch well. Ixora does well in partial shade in the warmest areas. It does best, however, with full sun most of the day, but some shade during the hottest hours. Plants in more sun will be denser and more compact, and produce more flowers. Ixora is used in warm climates for hedges and screens, foundation plantings, massed in flowering beds, or grown as a specimen shrub or small tree.It is also grown in containers, looking very distinguished as a patio or poolside plant.
