You need to plant in a small 5 to 6 inches pot, where the plant can be retained for two or three years. After that, these pot plants can be transferred to an eight-inch pot where they can be retained indefinitely. Native to warmer parts of the world, where frost is a rarity, the ixora blooms all year round under full sun. Ixora is native to India and has been grown across Asia for millennia and enjoys a place of religious and cultural significance and has different names in different regions. The scientific name, Ixora, is Portuguese variation of the word isvara, Sanskrit for Lord and referring to Shiva. Some texts also say that Ixora is derived from the word Iswari, a name for goddess Parvati, to whom ixora is sacred. Ixora is a genus of over 500 species, in the coffee family, Rubiaceae. It grows as a small shrub with large clusters of red, yellow, white, pink, or orange flowers that standout like puffballs from the evergreen foliage continuously throughout the year. The plant has glossy leathery leaves that are oval shaped and stiff growing on woody stems. Started and grown year-round, ixoras are easier to grow outdoors in full sun; nevertheless, maintaining an ixora plant indoors and keeping it blooming can be a challenge. In any case, they are slow growers and require judicious pruning and patience to grow it into a large showy shrub with vibrant flower clusters that bloom through the year.
