Hi

sharing snap of seldom seen Yellow cultivar of Ixora coccinea....taken in my neighbourhood (Kolkata).

Ixora coccinea, known as the Jungle Geranium, Flame of the Woods, and Jungle Flame, is a common flowering shrub native to tropical Asia. Although there are some 400 species in the genus Ixora, only a handful are commonly cultivated.

Cheers!

Shantanu :)
