QUISQUALIS & IXORA

Without the opened flowers, it may not be so easy to recognize the Quisqualis indica (common name: Rangoon Creeper, Drunken Sailor) from the leaves and floral buds alone.


The last photo is of the unknown Ixora or genus posted earlier. It is strange that half the floral buds opened up as flowers whilst the other half are closed. What was it thinking?
