Ordered Tuesday at 8 PM, delivered Wednesday by 9:30 AM. Plant was healthy, tall (about 16 inches), came in the charcoal pot exactly as shown. The packaging was thoughtful — wood shavings, tied stems, no soil spill. Two weeks in and it's already pushed out a new leaf.
I have killed every plant I have ever owned. Got this for the bedroom. Watered it once in 6 weeks. Still alive, still growing. The team also responded on WhatsApp within an hour when I asked if it was getting too much sun. Not paid to say this.
Plant itself is gorgeous and very healthy. Only minor gripe — I expected the medium size to be taller, but it's closer to 14 inches than 18. Still very happy with it. The Khurja ceramic pot is honestly the best part.

The Rangoon Creeper, scientifically known as Quisqualis indica, is a vigorous, perennial vine native to Asia. It's a popular ornamental plant in India, cherished for its rapid growth and stunning, fragrant flowers. The plant produces clusters of tubular blossoms that exhibit a fascinating colour transformation, opening as white or light pink and gradually deepening to a rich pink or red as they age. This colour-changing feature provides a long-lasting display of interest. Also known by its common name Madhu Malti, which translates to 'honey jasmine', the plant lives up to its name with its sweet nectar-like fragrance that perfumes the garden in the evenings. Its ability to attract pollinators like butterflies and hummingbirds makes it a valuable addition to any ecosystem garden.
For optimal growth and abundant flowering, the Rangoon Creeper requires a location that receives bright, direct sunlight for at least 6-7 hours a day. It thrives in full sun conditions, making it perfect for south-facing gardens, open terraces, or bright balconies. As an outdoor plant, it should be placed where it can receive maximum sunlight exposure. While it can tolerate some light shade, insufficient sunlight will result in poor flowering and leggy growth. The plant's climbing nature means it needs support like a trellis, arch, fence, or a large wall. When planting, ensure the support structure is sturdy enough to handle the vine's weight as it matures and becomes heavy with foliage and flowers.
The Rangoon Creeper prefers consistently moist soil, especially during the active growing season in spring and summer. Water the plant thoroughly when the top inch of soil feels dry to the touch, ensuring that water reaches the root zone. It's important to avoid water-logging, as this can lead to root rot. Good drainage is essential, so ensure the pot or planting site has adequate drainage holes. During the hot summer months, you may need to water more frequently, perhaps even daily in very hot conditions. The plant is relatively drought-tolerant once established but performs best with regular hydration. In terms of humidity, the Rangoon Creeper is well-suited to the typical humidity levels found in most Indian climates and does not require any special misting or humidity control.
