Medinilla scortechinii

Compact Orange Medinilla

A tropical shrub from the Philippines with a orange flowers that look like an open-type coral. This species is compact, but with an open habit, usually around 24", but I have seen them as large as 5' tall. They can be grown terrestrially or epiphytically. Likes an open soil with regular moisture. Protect from low temperatures, dislikes cold.
