Ixora Orange (Ixora Coccinea)

Ixora Orange (Scientific - Ixora Coccinea) is an out of the ordinary houseplant, but a well grown specimen attracts attention. Ixora plants are small shrubs that grow in subtropical regions. These plants feature large clusters of vibrant orange colour flowers that emerge like puffballs from the evergreen leaves in the summer. 

The plant is sometimes harvested locally for its edible fruit and medicinal uses. It is commonly grown as an ornamental and as a hedge, valued especially for its floral display.
