Live Orange Ixora (Xora) Plant – Regular Variety in Big Nursery Cover
Bring a spectacular burst of perpetual color and classic tropical charm to your garden with our Live Orange Ixora (Xora) Plant. Widely known in South India as "Idly Poo" or West Indian Jasmine, Ixora is celebrated for its incredibly dense, ball-shaped clusters of star-like blossoms.
This is our premium regular variety—not the dwarf or mini version—meaning it grows into a robust, full-sized flowering shrub with large, leathery, dark green leaves that provide a stunning contrast to its bright, fiery orange blooms.
This plant comes well-established in a big nursery cover (polybag), ensuring a deep, highly developed root system that is ready to take off as soon as it arrives at your home. Perfectly acclimated to thrive in Chennai’s warm, sun-drenched coastal climate, the regular Orange Ixora is an exceptionally hardy, heavy-blooming perennial.
Whether you want to plant it directly in the ground to create a vibrant flowering hedge, display it in a large decorative pot on a sunny balcony, or use it to anchor a corner of your terrace garden, this ready-to-grow shrub delivers a constant supply of beautiful blossoms throughout the year.

The regular Orange Ixora thrives in bright sunlight. Place it where it receives at least 4–6 hours of direct sunlight daily for the best flowering performance.
While it can tolerate partial shade, reduced sunlight may result in fewer blooms.
Water thoroughly whenever the top 1–2 inches of soil feels dry.
During peak summer, more frequent watering may be required.
Ensure excellent drainage, as Ixora dislikes waterlogged soil.
Ixora performs best in slightly acidic, well-draining, organic-rich soil.
A mix of red soil, cocopeat, and vermicompost works exceptionally well.
Apply vermicompost, bone meal, or an organic flowering fertilizer every 3–4 weeks to encourage continuous blooming.
Light pruning after each flowering cycle promotes bushier growth and increased flower production.
Regular trimming also helps maintain a neat and attractive shape.

Is this the mini or dwarf Ixora variety?
No. This is the regular, standard-sized Orange Ixora variety. It develops into a larger, fuller flowering shrub with bigger foliage compared to dwarf varieties.
What does "big cover" mean?
Big cover refers to a large nursery polybag that provides ample root space. Plants grown in larger covers develop stronger root systems, resulting in healthier growth after transplanting.
Why are the leaves turning pale yellow?
Yellow leaves with green veins can indicate iron deficiency or alkaline soil conditions. Ixora prefers slightly acidic soil. Adding compost, organic manure, or seaweed extract can help restore healthy green foliage.
