The plant produces small, white, star-shaped flowers in clusters. It is often used as an ornamental plant and can be grown in a range of soils and climates, including tropical, subtropical, and semi-arid regions.

Growing tips:

Wrightia religiosa variegata is a relatively low-maintenance plant, but it does require proper care to thrive. Here are some tips on how to care for the plant:

  • Light: It prefers full sun to partial shade. If grown in partial shade, the variegation may be less pronounced.

  • Water: The plant should be kept consistently moist, but not waterlogged. It's a drought tolerant plant but regular watering will help it to produce more flower.

  • Soil: It prefers well-drained soil that is rich in organic matter. The pH of the soil should be slightly acidic to neutral.

  • Temperature: It is tolerant to a wide range of temperatures, however it may not tolerate frost, so it's best to protect it from the cold.

  • Fertilizer: Feed the plant with balanced organic fertilizers during the growing season (spring and summer) will help to produce more flowers.

  • Pruning: Regular pruning will keep the plant bushier and promote new growth. Prune the plant after it has finished flowering to shape it and maintain its size.

  • Pest & Disease: It's quite resistant to pests and diseases, however watch out for spider mites, scale insects and mealybugs.

By following these care tips, your Wrightia religiosa variegata should grow healthy and bloom well.
