Medinilla scortechenii Orange Coral
Medinilla scortechenii Orange Coral is a beautiful tropical evergreen flowering plant. One of the smallest sized forms of Medinilla we have. Making fast growing plants 1/2m tall by the same wide in the garden. And fantastic in pots and hanging baskets. They produce bunches of bright orange flowers reminiscent of orange coral - hence the common name. They flower for many months, often around 6 months for us in the nursery. And when pollinated are followed by bright orange berries which stay on the plant for months. They provide year round colour between the flowers and berries. They have beautiful large glossy leathery leaves which add to their appeal. They are tropical plants and this variety particularly loves a warmer position such as a patio or courtyard. But do well at our nurseries in Kenthurst and Cranebrook through our cold winters as long as they are protected from frosts. And make wonderful indoor plants in bright airy rooms near a window. Or hang one of these beauties in a part shade / part sun position in a tree or under a patio.
We have beautiful specimens available in 175mm pots.
