Ixora finlaysoniana
Ixora finlaysoniana is an exotic shrub that have escaped cultivation in a few localities. The leaves are oppositely arranged, elliptic in shape, and often have reddish petioles. The inflorescences are white and fragrant.[uforest.org]
I've observed I. finlaysoniana to be flourishing at the lower portions of the Maria Makiling Trail, Mt. Makiling, Philippines. The flowers are delightfully fragrant akin to the scent of jasmine with a trace of butterscotch.
