Valued reading greetings.

Receive a sincere and affectionate gratitude to interest you in knowing environmental aspects of our surroundings and planet in general through this blog.

For your sightly catkin, leafy foliage and resistant stem with multiple branches, the Ixora (Ixora coccinea) has become one of the species more appreciated by its ornamental beauty, extending oneself your use in grassland areas of avenues, sidewalks, residential sets, public institutions and private roads, among others. The objective of this after is presenting the ornamental qualities that have carried Ixora coccinea to predominate between the plants of gardening and like biological fencing.

Ixora's plant is an evergreen shrub, that means that he supports himself with green and perennial foliage all year round. Your cultivation will have optimal growth and development in humid acid soils with good drainage accompanied of an adequate positioning of daylight, such is the case of this image.

While in grounds with levels of significant alkalinity the accompaniment of a plan of fertility with microcomputer will require nutrients that better production of chlorophyl to maintain the unripe foliage provides him.

In favorable conditions he will have an effective compact boss of growth, this has founded biological and physiological reasons in the hormones auxins, giberalins, cytokinins, acid absícico and ethylene that have various functions in the growth stages and wide-spreading development of the shrublike stocks

Fruit bunches shaped like balloon, is about contentive drupes of two seeds.

Your flowering in cultivations with commercial purpose can accelerate and to linger on with the use of Ancymidol applied in proportion of 2 mg for flowerpot. This molecular nitrogenated compound acts like an inhibitor of the responsible enzymes of the biosynthetic catalization.

It is absorbed by the foliage, stems and roots, getting carried away by road xylem and level of meristematic sub-apical growth where he inhibits the biosynthesis of gibberellins and the rate of cell division, therefore your absorption produces more compact plants and improves the production of yolks, flowers and fruits.

It is advisable to accomplish the pruning planned of the outstanding branches to maintain symmetry and good ornamental design. By the way, the pollarded plants will look benefited while this operation of maintenance comes true with half an or soft temperatures, in no case to high temperatures.

A technique tried and recommended to play the clammed at the moment of correcting the asymmetry in the flowerpots, is accomplishing the cuts over the 50 centimeters of height and inferior to the 0.70 meters. To exceed in the height the related quality to the shrublike design, catkin and the foliage will be deficient. In relation to this aspect and like final recommendation, this pruning has its bigger effectiveness if it takes effect in the present month. So he makes good use of August to clam your flowerpots of Ixora coccinea.

The ecological care of the environment and the implementation of conscience is duty of all. Acknowledging to and to promote the ecological value of the biodiversity is a kind of care and environmental protection.
