In bloom today

Post by Muhammad Arif Khan »

AOA,
The leaves are like Ixora, flowers are smaller than Ixora most people call it white Ixora, but it is very fragrant and forms a small compact tree

This is the fragrant white ixora. I bought one from the garden center last year but it is just beginning to sprout now. There has also been die back. You probably got this right now since its blooming?

I had a 10 feet tall tree which I had to cut down This one is its sprouted root. The fragrance of the blooming tree would attrect people from arround.

The propagation is from root cuttings and most of them die in the first winter.
