Product details
Bring a spectacular burst of perpetual color and classic tropical charm to your garden with our Live Pink 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, standard 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 soft pink 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 Pink 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 Pink Ixora absolutely loves the sun. Place it in an outdoor area that receives at least 4 to 6 hours of direct morning or afternoon sunlight daily.
While it can tolerate partial shade, insufficient light will cause the plant to produce fewer flowers and more plain green leaves.
Water your plant thoroughly whenever the top 1 to 2 inches of soil feels dry to the touch. During the peak summer months, it may require daily watering to keep the foliage crisp and hydrated.
Always ensure the pot or planting bed drains out instantly. Ixoras love moisture but will suffer from root rot if left sitting in stagnant, muddy soil.
Thrives best in an acidic, organic, and well-aerated soil mix. A combination of local red soil, cocopeat, and a heavy helping of organic compost or vermicompost works perfectly.
To keep the blooms coming continuously, feed the plant a handful of organic flower booster, bone meal, or vermicompost once every 3 to 4 weeks.
Since this is the regular large-growing variety, you can easily prune it to your desired shape. Trim the tips of the branches gently after a major flowering flush concludes. This encourages the shrub to branch out horizontally, making it much bushier and creating more tips for future flower clusters to form.

No, this is the regular, standard-sized Ixora plant. It features larger foliage and grows into a full, robust flowering shrub rather than staying compact and small like the mini or dwarf varieties. It is ideal if you are looking for a substantial, high-impact garden plant.
"Big cover" means the plant is cultivated and delivered in a large, heavy-duty nursery polybag rather than a small starter cup or tight plastic pot. This gives the root system plenty of space to spread out and mature, resulting in a much healthier, sturdier, and faster-growing plant upon arrival.
Yellowing leaves with green veins on an Ixora plant usually indicate a lack of iron or slightly alkaline soil (chlorosis). Ixoras strictly prefer acidic soil. You can easily fix this by adding a handful of organic compost or a splash of diluted organic seaweed extract to lower the soil pH and restore its rich, deep green color.
