Syn: Combretum indicum

Quisqualis indica is suitable to many gardeners all over the country because of its tolerance to be trimmed to any size. It can also be grown in pots. As the weather warms up, the display of flowers will begin to cover the lush foliage. Rangoon Creeper has an unique bloom. One plant will carry 3 different colors of flowers. Flowers starts white and with age turn pink and then red. If that wasn’t enough to please most gardeners, the flowers have a slight fragrance too. We carry 2 varieties. One with a single flower and another with a double. The double form is much harder to propagate than the single form rangoon creeper, making it more uncommon. Both are equally beautiful. The plant goes semi dormant during the winter and resprouts again when it warms up. Trimming is advisable just before it starts sprouting in late winter.
