Light IxoraSole pieno
We suggest locating the vases in a pretty bright place, although avoiding direct sunlight, which could damage the foliage. The Ixora should be preferably located in a place where it can have at least a few hours a day of direct solar light.The Ixora can't stand cold weather, therefore in general it should be grown in a sheltered place; during the Spring months, when the minimum temperatures are above zero, it can be moved outside.

Fertilize Ixora
During the spring let’s regularly use a fertilizer rich with nitrogen and potassium to favour the development of the new vegetation; fertilization is done by adding fertilizer to the irrigating water, every 15-20 days.

Cultivation Ixora
The development is erect, they tend to grow both in height and in width, giving origin to a rounded shrub. These plants are shrubs. Ixora Is an evergreen; during spring iIt assumes a red colouring; the adult specimens are medium in size and reach 50 cm high.

Water IxoraTenere Umido
Water regularly, every 1-2 weeks , wetting the soil deeply with about 2-3 glasses of water ,but waiting for the substratum to dry completely between one watering and another; avoid leaving stagnant water. It is advisable to water the plants avoiding to leave water in the saucer, because stagnant water often develops fungal diseases.

Pests Ixora
As the day-time temperatures rise at the beginning of the spring, it is agreeable to practice a preventive treatment, with a wide-range insecticide, which should be applied when there aren’t flowerings in the garden. Before the buds become too large, it is advisable to also treat them with a wide-range fungicide, to prevent the development of fungal diseases which spread easily when there is an elevated environmental moisture.

Mold Ixora
Cultivate in a good soil of an average mix, which slightly withholds humidity.
