Ixora coccinea ‘Maui Duo’

ixora maui duo

Also known as: Flame of the Woods, Jungle Flame, Maui Ixora

Ixora Maui Duo combines two colorful Maui Ixora plants in one container for a bright mix of red and yellow blooms. Each plant produces rounded clusters of small flowers that stand out beautifully against glossy green foliage and bring nonstop tropical color throughout the warm season. Ixora Maui Duo grows best in full sun to partial shade and warm temperatures, making it a beautiful choice for patios, garden beds, tropical landscapes, and outdoor containers. Its nectar rich flowers also attract butterflies, adding even more life and color to outdoor spaces.

plant tips

  • water

    Water once a week with a deep soaking and keep soil moist but not dripping wet — never let it dry out completely. Reduce frequency slightly in cooler months.

  • light

    Loves about 5 to 8 hours of bright, direct sunlight per day, though some afternoon shade is appreciated in the hottest climates.

  • mature size

    Approx. 36" W × 36" H

care

Best pruned in late winter once the threat of extreme cold has passed to maintain shape between both plants. Use an acidic fertilizer, similar to an azalea or gardenia blend, to boost both foliage color and bloom production. Light trimming between bloom cycles increases both the quantity and frequency of blooms for each color.

  • patio color duo

    Place Ixora Maui Duo in a decorative pot on your sunny patio for an instant two-tone tropical display. Its red and yellow blooms create a vibrant, ever-changing show all season long.

  • garden border glow

    Plant Ixora Maui Duo along garden borders or walkways for a cheerful double dose of color that attracts butterflies and blooms nearly year-round in any sunny landscape.
