Makes a wonderful flowering hedge under trees or palms and along property lines. Feed with an Ixora or Palm granular fertilizer every three months. Supplement with magnesium sulfate in spring. Loves acidic soil so plant away from concrete walkways or foundations or treat soil with an acidifier yearly. Extended periods of temperatures below 40F may cause brown spots on foliage and defoliation. Prune back hard in early spring to encourage new growth and blooms.
