Ixora cocinnea ‘Maui Red’


Ixora cocinnea ‘Maui Red’

My Ixoras are flowering profusely this time of year. They located in the side of the house. They’re pretty neglected but flower very well. Photo taken Nov. 20, 2020.

Very attractive coloured flowers, Andy. It’s a nice plant overall.

Yes, they’re a nice little shrub. They do get pretty chlorotic here due to the alkaline soil. This shrub wants an acidic soil.

Whatever your doing, you’re doing well! Looks really healthy.

Thanks! : )

I gave it sulphur, it acidifies the soil.

Also, magnesium sulfate helps.
