Overview: The Marmalade Mussaenda is a captivating tropical shrub prized for its vibrant, showy bracts and delicate star-shaped flowers. Native to the Philippines, this ornamental beauty features large, leaf-like bracts in shades of white, pink, or red that surround small, yellowish orange blossoms, creating a striking contrast. The eye-catching blooms appear almost year-round, adding a lush, colorful touch to gardens and landscapes.
This evergreen shrub thrives in full to partial sunlight and prefers warm, humid environments, making it perfect for tropical and subtropical regions. The Queen of Philippines can grow up to 10 feet tall but can also be pruned to maintain a more compact shape, making it suitable for borders, hedges, or container planting.
The Mussaenda is an evergreen tropical shrub available in a brilliant array of colors which bloom profusely throughout the warmer months.
The bush can grow from 2 to 15 ft. It prefers part shade to full sun. Make sure to keep soil consistently moist. If temperatures begin to dip below 50 degrees, it’s best to bring the plant indoors.
