Plumbago indica, also known as Indian leadwort, is a flowering plant found in Southeast Asia, Indonesia, the Philippines, and southern China. It is a spreading evergreen shrub that can reach up to 2 meters in height and 1 meter in width. During winter, it produces clusters of deep pink or scarlet flowers. This plant is commonly grown as an ornamental plant and is best suited for subtropical or warm-temperate climates, although it can also be grown in a greenhouse in cooler climates. Plumbago indica has been recognized for its beauty and has received the Royal Horticultural Society's Award of Garden Merit.
