Echeveria Pegasus

The Ixora (Rugmini) Plant, also known as West Indian Jasmine, is a tropical evergreen shrub celebrated for its vibrant orange, star-shaped flowers. Native to South and Southeast Asia, this plant adds a splash of color to gardens, patios, and indoor spaces.

Echeveria Pegasus

A beautiful rosette succulent with elegantly curved ends and a pointy tip. The leaves have a bluish-green tone and grow from the centre in asymmetrical rosette shape. Great for areas that receive a few hours of morning sun and bright indirect light through the day, it is extremely easy to grow and propagates via cute pups that grow around the mother plant. Place it in a small cylindrical pot and watch the rosette grow in diameter to overtake the entire top of the planter.

Light and Watering

Light: Thrives in bright, direct sunlight with at least 6 hours of sun daily.
Watering: Keep soil consistently moist but avoid overwatering. Water when the top inch of soil is dry.

Soil and Fertilization

Ixora prefers slightly acidic, well-draining soil. Fertilize every 4 to 6 weeks during the growing season with an acid-loving plant fertilizer.

Temperature and Humidity

Ixora thrives in warm temperatures (60°F to 85°F) and high humidity. Use a humidifier or a water tray to maintain humidity indoors.

Pruning and Care

Regular pruning after flowering promotes bushier growth and more blooms. Keep an eye out for pests and maintain proper air circulation to prevent leaf spot.

Propagation and Use

Propagate via stem cuttings in spring or early summer. The Ixora is ideal for hedges, borders, or container gardening, adding vibrant color to any space.
