Dr. Farooq,

Please note that there was some ambiguety about the name the ID of our local white fragrant Ixora which becomes a small shrub. Now i am 100% certain that it's actual name is Ixora Parviflora.

The only reason I like to learn names is that I can find more about them in books and web.

So which Ixora is this?

It formed a nice compact tree about 10 feet high and had to be chopped down, Sprouting from the base it now is a large bush. It is adjacent to Gardenias but fragrance surpasses them.
Four years ago on web it was Ixora Chinensis now it is .....?
