My Maui Red Ixora is blooming pretty well this early in the season. It usually blooms pretty heavily from April/May through December. Photo taken Mar. 25, 2013.

It's going in the ground with the rest of my other Ixoras very soon.

I have them as small shrubs. Ixoras don't grow as fast as in the tropics; however, everything else (most of my plants are tropical) grows super fast...too fast, sometimes. I do have to water a lot, everyday in fact.

I have sandy loam, which is loaded with rock. The soil drains too fast...and that's why I need to water almost every day...even in winter. Mulch doesn't seem to work too well here, either (to help keep moisture in the soil).
