Popular cultivated ornamental shrub, flowering year-round, requiring little care. Erect, 90-180 cm in height. For hedges and mass plantings, pruning is done right after blossoms have withered to maintain height of 30-60 cm. This controlled general appearance gives it the name of dwarf santan. Leaves short-stalked, 7-13 cm. long, 3-4 cm wide, broadest near the blunt tip, tapering towards the narrow base. Flower cluster (cyme) with many crowded flowers, 6-12 cm wide. Flowers yellow, red, or tangerine, without fragrance. Petals united into a slender tube about 2.5 cm long, split at the tip into 4 spreading lobes about 1 cm long. Grows in practically any type of soil, but thrives best in sandy loam. Propagation by stem cuttings and layering.

I took this shot just before going home from Mall of Asia. We didn't even have any idea that there's a regular fireworks display every sat at SM By The Bay (at the back of Mall of Asia). Just about to take some pics from my family (mama and joshua) at the bridge while waiting for Rain to get the car, (ayaw na namin pumunta sa parking ang layo e.) Bigla nalang nagsigawan ang mga tao. Good thing I brought my camera. I was having a hard time taking shots kase naguluhan ako kung mag-manual ba ako o mag-automatic. hehehe! I got a few shots. See more shots HERE.
