Plant lovers like to grow this plant due to its beautiful deep red, yellow, mix of three colours (red, yellow and white), pink or pure white flowers (as per variety). This variety of Champa will bloom white flowers.  It can grow faster in full sunlight with less water. Bloom time is for full year (except frost, extreme cold). Blooming is maximum during summer season. This plant can grow upto height of 20 feet or even more like a tree. If we do not prune this regularly, it can become a tree. It's a long life plant. The plant performs best in big size containers (8 inch or more) or plant them on ground. If you have done its plantation on open ground or soil, requirement of fertilizers will reduce, because roots can grow deep in ground to absorb needful nutrients. But if you are having the same plant in pot, you must add some liquid fertilizers or vermi-compost periodically for better results. Because roots cannot grow beyond pot.

This plant is almost maintenance free. Even without fertilisers, this plant will show satisfactory growth. However, use of fertiliser shows faster growth and more blooming. During extreme cold season, its leaves may suffer temporary damage. Even with low level of atmospheric humidity (20% ), this plant continues to grow healthily.

Watering & Sunlight:           We should water it whenever soil has become fully dry. Drainage in pot is necessary by making sufficient holes in bottom. To make the ideal potting mix, 20 % drainage media (river sand/ crushed Leca/ Perlite/ Pumice or rice husk- use any one of them) in potting mix should be available. During extreme cold, give very less water and try to protect from cold.
