Ixora is a great tropical flowering plant that will provide bright color as a foundation plant, accent plant or in a container. There are two types of Ixora- one variety grows larger and the other is a dwarf form. All Ixora are very salt tolerant and the deer usually don’t bother them. As they are semi-tropical, they will need to be protected from freezes.
