Nursery contributed plant descriptions
As above but this species with much smaller and glossier foliage. The flowers are a lovely bicolored red and yellow and much more in scale with the size of the foliage. Best treated like a vireya with excellent drainage and protection from frost. Our first offering of this ornamental species. These are grown from seed collected in the wild.
