Ixora chinensis 'Prince of Orange' is an evergreen popular subtropical to tropical shrub that blooms throughout the warmer months with magnificent long-lasting big balls of orange flowers. Fantastic for mass plantings, a colourful hedge, or a border. Additionally makes a beautiful accent plant for planters. In humid conditions, prefers a sunny location in well-drained soil. It must be kept in a warm, protected location in cold areas because it is frost-sensitive. Maintain a nice, dense shape by pruning frequently, mulching carefully, and watering frequently during dry spells. Fertilize once a year in the spring with a slow-release fertiliser.
