Shrub or small tree up to 5 m tall; leaves opposite, elliptic-lanceolate to obovate, 10-17 cm long, glabrous, base cuneate to obtuse, lateral veins 8-12 pairs; stipules ovate to triangular, 3-6 mm long; petiole distinct 4-10 mm long; flowers white, scented, in dense comymbose cymes 8-10 cm across on up to 4 cm long peduncle; bracts distinct 8-10 mm long; corolla tube 2.5-3 cm long, lobes narrowly elliptic to oblanceolate, 5-6 mm long, less than 1.3-3 mm broad, acute or subacute; fruit globose, 6-8 mm in diam.

Ixora pavetta (I. parviflora Vahl.) has corolla tube only 8-10 mm long, where as in the above plant the corolla tube is longer than 2 cm (compare with about 4-5 mm long lobes), a feature of I. finlaysoniana.
.
This is a species of Ixora. .. is right. It is Ixora species. In Pavetta the styles are almost as long as the tube. Its Ixora parviflora Ixora parviflora Vahl. as described in FBI is Nom. illeg.) and as such synonym of I. pavetta two plants two names which is which: Ixora polyantha and Ixora finlaysoniana??:
These two types of plants of Ixora have been bothering me for a long time. Both differ clearly from similar species I. pavetta in much longer corolla tube, 20-30 mm long. Both have nearly elliptic-lanceolate to elliptic-oblanceolate leaves, 6-20 cm long, with cuneate base and narrowed to 5-10 mm long petiole. Both have white flowers, which in one (sp-a) are lesser in number, forming a spreading inflorescence and petals are flat nearly 2.5 mm wide. In second (sp-b) flowers are more in number, dense and forming nearly globose inflorescence; with corolla lobes which are mostly reflexed along the margin (and looking similar to I. pavetta) so that they look very narrow (hardly 1-1.5 mm wide), but a few flowers would have flat corolla lobes which may be up to 2.5 mm wide or so (latter has been tentatively identified by … as I. finlaysoniana). Ixora polyantha is described from Malabar in India and is commonly cultivated in Pakistan and India according to eFlora of India. Ixora finlaysoniana is plant from Thialand, Phillippines, widely cultivated in China and N E India, as per eFlora of China.
I have tried to find out differences between the two species from available sources, but could not succeed. Could any member lay hands to a publication which describes and keys out both the species, so that our specimens can be clearly fixed?. Please read eFlora of India as eFlora of Pakistan This is Ixora finlaysoniana There is a good monograph on Indian species of Ixora by Tariq Hussain of NBRI. The key and description quite reliable and easy to use. Ixora polyantha is a remarkable species never confusing with any of these shown photographs. I will post a separate photograph of Ixora polyantha for comparison. It would be helpful to know the full reference of this monograph on Ixora. I am waiting for your upload. .

Please help identify ixora species on which bflys are nectoring, in the following link-
Pl. check comparative images at
Zeroed to Ixora Finlaysoniana. Reason is long corola tube more than 2 cm, and leaf shape match. Corolla tube size can be make out due to size of butterfly. Please confirm. is this your own utube video or if not are you and thru you Not my film. It is film from WildFilmsIndia youtube channel. It is sharable link and public link. They have their own copyright logo at right bottom corner of the film. just give the the url or link to what you want to ask about so whoever wants to see it, sees it comments and then when they are done, only url remains.
plus, now that you know how to, you can go directly to our website, go to i for ixora, and look up matches.
its easier, moe ” legal” without that lag time of sending things in.
when you write” Not expecting to store this film in our site, is it possible? How can someone make sure that other people’s media does not get cache or store in our site.”
it implies now someone ie gargji will have to manually delete the someone elsesw’s video and replace it with its url.
so please lets be nice. for those of you who would like to know: utube video channels are privately owned, and monetized.
ie the channel owner make money based on number of views and number of subscribers.
this particular video was from a channel called wildfilms india is not creative commons.
with 974,387 subscribers as of now and 651,539,914 views and they aspire to
and this name of the channel: is not a creative commons …… they do have very nice content.
worth going there and viewing.
its website: http://wildfilmsindia.com/
states in no uncertain terms that they own the copyright. i quote:
“STOCK AND STILL FOOTAGE
We have over 50, 000 hours of material in our stock archive, with an original focus on South Asia,
but more recently also an increasingly global content footprint.
We have 750,000 stills in our archive, including 35 mm celluloid and digital images.

we surely do not want to infringe on their copyright.
i am sure that was not Sharmila”s intent.
“…: just give the the url or link to what you want to ask about

With Ref: 👆 Please check my first mail of this thread, there was link of youtube which was shared by me.
It was not the file containing physical film. It is not violation of copyright at all. Even when we go to link on youtube, it shows us
share link which can be shared to many applications including google plus and mail. So definitely it is allowed for us to share this link with others.
“plus, now that you know how to, you can go directly to our website, go to i for ixora, and look up matches.
its easier, moe ” legal” without that lag time of sending things in.”
a link of website we have to refer? How to find out name of family as in link(for eg here rubiaceae).
Came to know about this plant name ixora because it is written in the film description.
Even many plants look exactly same with little difference which can be confirmed by experts only. I feel experts are here so wanted to get
confirmation about it. Many people here do that, they share photo and ask for id as per my observation.
“when you write” Not expecting to store this film in our site, is it possible? How can someone make sure that other people’s media does not get cache or store in our site.”
it implies now someone ie gargji will have to manually delete the someone elsesw’s video and replace it with its url.”
With Ref 👆
Definitely not …, and i beg for apology if this implies such way to any person. Someone does not mean …, or you or site administrator.
I wanted to say someone means the user like me who sends media not owned by herself. Asked this question because besides i did not share any physical
content of youtube film, you raised issue of copyright which made me concern about the issue. So it is just to get some way to remove referential content like image owned by other person than me. Please check my first mail in this thread. It contains url towards youtube. I understand your concern. yes. thanks. thats is the correct way if you absolutely have to — but i thought it was waste of time have to look at a video of several minutes that had no data that we require
nobody has that kind of time to id a plant thats the crux of the matter
==
yes. people send in photographs they themselves have taken for id.
they also include place state//district// level above sea level, cultivated or wild etc.
information that a true botany group needs. date//season pic taken and if needed/asked for they provide more pics they have taken or more info “Many people here do that, they share photo and ask for id as per my observation. “
and you will notice in reply they get the link to the page like you did
that’s the purpose of the last ten+ years of endeavors
of this group and making of the website with species pages and providing links to keys etc
===
and its voluntary on both sides not obligatory
===
be well “and you will notice in reply they get the link to the page like you did
that’s the purpose of the last ten+ years of endeavors
of this group and making of the website with species pages and providing links to keys etc”
Ref 👆 Definitely Ushadi, it was always the case for my other questions and it should be. But what if we encounter with some plant whose image/media is not owned by us and we need identify what the plant is? Sometimes my friends not able to identify them, so i have to run here to get help from expert. In the video location was not mentioned, what we can do about it? If we have location and date, we do mention it.
“but i thought it was waste of time have to look at a video of several minutes that had no data that we require nobody has that kind of time to id a plant thats the crux of the matter”
Ref 👆 …, this should not cause worry. Definitely photos are fast. But what if we do not have photos of some
plant. And if someone find it time consuming they can ignore the question. There are many members of our site and all are
free to not answer. My friends also could not identify it so that is the way it is. Question was not asked to you personally at all, trust me.
And there was no expectation from my side that you personally should watch video. got your point. thanks

Thank you … for validating. Ex-situ Silviculture : Ixora arborea Roxb. : 1 post by 1 author. Attachments (10). I think it should be Ixora finlaysoniana as per Now, I am in a dilemma, .. You say this is Ixora finlaysoniana, they say it is Ixora arborea Roxb. !!! Check for yourself with Ixora pavetta (syn: Ixora arborea Roxb. ex Sm.). Such mistakes are quite common in Indian gardens. Quite a disturbing trend, Sir. Ixora pavetta from Delhi: A reply from another thread: However, it seems that … has not accepted it in his subsequent post & maintained it as Ixora pavetta I think it should be Ixora finlaysoniana as per Grows to a medium size tree (?)
Leaves: Opposite
Flowers: White, very fragrant
I went to reopened Academy of development sciences, Kashele and got few plants. One is this one called Lokhandi. The maali said it has very fragrant white flowers that you can smell from 25 meters! Happy I searched the net and found at least 3 plants by name of Lokhandi.
Please help me identify this one year old seedling correctly.
1.This cannot be Memocylon Umbellatum? Can it be? Memocylon has blue flowers. Are they fragrant?
2.Is it Ixora brachiata? Are I brachiata flowers very fragrant?
3.It definitely cannot be Lepisanthes tetraphylla?
4.Can it be Mammea suriga? This would be obviously Ixora but unlikely to be I. brachiata because it is a unusual wild plant. If knowingly made, it can be this wild shrub, otherwise it could be I. pavetta a tree sp. Lokhandi is a name that is used for various species of Ixora. This can be Ixora brachiata however proper identification will need flowers as foliage of Ixora brachiata and Ixora pavetta are quite similar I think it may be Ixora finlaysoniana as per Place: Thane city
Time: December 7, 2007 at 9.16am Habit: small tree Habitat: planted ornamental Plant height: about 20 – 25 ft Have observed such plant in premises of old houses in Thane city, though rare … (even in rural houses of South India); not so common in modern-time gardens. Some of the images similar to this (dense spherical bunch) on internet are labelled as Ixora finlaysoniana. I would say Ixora pavetta I liked the photographs. As usual good ones, well composed. Many thanks … for the ID. Ixora indica (L.) Baill.

Ixora decipiens DC. Ixora parviflora Vahl [Illegitimate] I think it should be Ixora finlaysoniana as per Yes …, thank you.
It is Ixora finlaysoniana and I have already labelled it accordingly.
May be discussed and resolved in some other post. . Rubiaceae Week: Ixora pavetta Andr. from Delhi: Tall shrub or small tree; leaves opposite, oblong or elliptic, 7-15 cm long, obtuse or shortly acuminate; petiole 4-5 mm long; flowers white, sessile, in in condensed corymbose cymes; calyx minute; corolla tube slender, 6-10 mm long; lobes reflexed; fruit globose, black.
Species looks very similar to Ixora finlaysoniana but easily differentiated by its much shorter corolla tube.

Attaching more pictures of this Ixora, recorded on 12/4/13, on the same tree/shrub. I don’t think this is Ixora polyantha. Thank you very much. But, why don’t you think it is Ixora polyantha ? I have two queries – 1) Is I. polyantha fragrant?
2) How do you differentiate the two species?
I searched, but – efi thread
Toptropical, Dave’s, The Plant List conflict with each other. So does FoC or FoP. If you read the descriptions of Ixora polyantha in Cooke’s Flora or in Talbot’s Forest Flora of Bombay Presidency and Sind and compare them to the Flora of China description of Ixora finlaysoniana you will have all the answers. The obvious differences which can be seen in a photograph are as follows:
1. I. polyantha is a much smaller shrub. 2. It thrives in a moist forest environment and not surrounded by buildings. 3. I. polyantha flower heads are slightly flatter and less rounded. 4. In .I polyantha the branches of the cyme are covered in dense white hairs. This can be clearly seen when the flowers are in bud. 5. The leaves of I polyantha have extremely short petioles and often the leaves are sessile. Its leaves also appear more wrinkly than the flat leaves of the cultivated plant in your pics. 6. In I. polyantha the fruits are bright red and even before they are ripe you can see red calyx lobes at the base of the wilting flowers. This is a very noticeable feature. … has quite recently posted a clear photo of I polyantha which should clear your doubts. As far as I remember I. polyantha is also fragrant. I apologise if my previous reply cause some frustration. Requesting experts to add their comments. Many thanks … for sharing this plant.
Thanks to .. for resurfacing the post.
Thank you very much … for the clarification related to I. polyantha and I. finlaysoniana. There are interesting posts in group’s archive – there have always been doubts about its ID – ranging from I. pavetta to I. polyantha to I finlaysoniana. Thanks … for the detailed analysis cum description from various sources.
I also observe similar plants in many nearby bungalows in Pune. They must be cultivated ones and should be I. finlaysoniana. Will post the pictures in a separate thread. Thank you very much for the points to be remembered about I. polyantha and I. finlaysoniana. Some confusions still exist –
1. I. polyantha is a much smaller shrub.
2. It thrives in a moist forest environment and not surrounded by buildings.
3. I. polyantha flower heads are slightly flatter and less rounded.
4. In .I polyantha the branches of the cyme are covered in dense white hairs. This can be clearly seen when the flowers are in bud.
5. The leaves of I polyantha have extremely short petioles and often the leaves are sessile. Its leaves also appear more wrinkly than the flat leaves of the cultivated plant in your pics.
6. In I. polyantha the fruits are bright red and even before they are ripe you can see red calyx lobes at the base of the wilting flowers. This is a very noticeable feature.
Now, for winkled leaves, red calyx, please check – http://plantgenera.org/illustration.php?id_illustration=96985. Found Ixora finlaysoniana –
I skipped eFI posts. the points I have written to you are based on my own observations of the two plants in the field and later confirmed by written texts. In your earlier mail it was, “If you read the descriptions of Ixora polyantha in Cooke’s Flora or in Talbot’s Forest Flora of Bombay Presidency and Sind and compare them to the Flora of China description of Ixora finlaysoniana you will have all the answers.”
In the latest mail it is, “the points I have written to you are based on my own observations of the two plants in the field and later confirmed by written texts. ”
My view is the same as it was in my earlier mail. Thanks … for a very detailed analysis with links. It should go a long way finally nailing the identity. My understanding of differences between two species under discussion is as under: I. polyantha I. finlaysoniana
1. Small shrub 1. Shrub or tree reaching up to 18 feet
2. stipules broadly ovate 2. Stipules triangular-ovate
3. Leaves 15-30 cm long 3. Leaves 10-17 cm long
4. Cymes densely covered with white hairs 4. Cymes puberulous, not with white hairs
5. Calyx hairy, tube 3-5 mm long, 5. Calyx glabrous, tube 1-1.5 mm long, lobes 6-8 mm long
lobes 4-6 mm long.
Thank you Sir. Finally it may be concluded that your plant is Ixora finlaysoniana not I.polyantha Great! I was expecting this! Why so hurry dear …, to reach to a conclusion? Let’s see who has Ixora polyantha in our group. Certainly you have one, uploaded twice and validated by yourself and … … has one. … i has one. And….. well, i will come to this later. Should i paste here the links? I skip for the time being.
Again i copy a few words i received from …- 1) “….you can see red calyx lobes at the base of the wilting flowers. This is a very noticeable feature.….” 2) “Santhosh Kumar has quite recently posted a clear photo of I polyantha which should clear your doubts”
Do you think i need to get my eyes checked by a good optician/doctor. Because i fail to see any red calyx in your post(s) or in post(s) by Gurcharan Sir.
… post gets validated by … “red calyx”. Strange! i wonder how … “red calyx” turns green in … and …!
Moreover, …seems to know I. polyantha very well, yet he identifies a 15 ft tree (or shrub, whatever it may) as I. polyantha!!!
Well, i am yet to see … cards.
How do i know … is correct? She contradicts herself. Besides there is an illustration – http://plantgenera.org/illustration.php?id_illustration=96985 showing red calyx-white flowers, which is I chinensis Lam. Moreover, one eflora informs flowers of I.finlaysoniana are cream-white!!! Of course some creams are pure white too!!!
What i happens if i show you flatter head with few flowers in this very tree?
That’s the only point you have, not strong enough. You know it far better than me that cultivated plants defy many rules.
None of you could show white hairs (sometimes, not always), hairy calyx (pubescent, not hairy), stipules or other identifying characters in your uploads. Hint of white patch can be found in … post, not sure if those are white hairs or moulds, equally not sure if that is I. polyantha or some other. So much contradicting posts and identification!!!
Very interesting, isn’t it? That was my blunder of putting the guess as I. polyantha. Got carried away looking at the rather lax inflorescence – more nearer look-wise to I. polyantha than I. finlaysoniana … I totally missed seeing the words 15 ft tree. Please do not say apology. Whatever i i have learned about flora is all from you, ……. recently …. each and every member in this group.
I argue, to learn, to find the truth, as you have said in another mail – all of us. Nothing personal. As you have also said expressions vary from person to person, while communicating. One day i may be able to prove that you are correct.
Please do not get hurt with my views opposing you. I too felt same, many times, one example, for you efi thread I guess ID is correct ! Yes …, thanks a lot for confirmation.
