About this item

Description:

-Ixora is a genus of flowering plants in the Rubiaceae family. It consists of tropical evergreen trees and shrubs and holds around 500 species.

-It produces clusters of star-shaped flowers all year round. Dwarf Ixora are popularly used as low hedges because of their shrub form and compact appearance. They look attractive when they bloom profusely. However, after blooming, it will take some time for Dwarf Ixora to re-bloom. These plants are dependable bloomers, love the sun, and fit nicely into any size landscape. Members of Ixora prefer acidic soil, and are suitable choices for bonsai. Water Ixora as needed to keep the soil evenly moist, but not muddy. 

-Ixora flowers are commonly used in Hindu worship, as well as in ayurveda and Indian folk medicine.
