Justicia aurea - Yellow Jacobinia Flowering

Gorgeous flower!

Thanks! In a couple of weeks it should be in full bloom. :>)

Lovely flower its more like 12 degrees here :o((

Palmate, thanks! :>)

I heard some people complaining about how cool it's getting for the morning lows, which are around 63ºF (17ºC), which happens around 5:00 a.m. You never win here...people complain about it being too hot or too cool! LOL!

People all over the world complain about it being too hot or too cold. Funny people we are............

To true Alex

Alexandramou; Palmate:

Yes, very true! We are almost never satisfied! Although, my opinion here in San Diego 90% of the time the weather is perfect! :>)

Smashing plant!

I presume it likes lots of heat?

Thanks!

It's a tropical plant; however, doesn't need a lot of heat.
It should grow very well for you.

Size could be an issue..............

In a pot it stays very small; usually no more than 2 ft tall.

In the ground-- which this posted one is, then it's potential height is 12 ft. I keep this one at around 7 - 8 ft tall...my others around the front yard are only 3 - 4 ft. tall.
