Jatropha is a genus of flowering plants that includes species like Jatropha integerrima and Jatropha multifida. These plants are known for their stunning flowers that attract butterflies and hummingbirds to gardens. Jatropha integerrima, also called peregrina or spicy Jatropha, has star-shaped red flowers that bloom year-round. On the other hand, Jatropha multifida, known as the coral plant, features coral-pink flowers and tropical-looking fan-shaped foliage. Both species are poisonous if ingested, so caution is advised, especially around children and pets.

Characteristics of Jatropha Plants Jatropha plants are tropical evergreens with slender stems and multiple trunks that can grow up to about 15 feet tall with an equal spread when left unpruned. They thrive in full sun and well-drained soil, requiring low maintenance once established. While they can tolerate partial shade, they flower best in full sun. These plants are not salt-tolerant and are best suited for zones 10 to 11 but can survive in zone 9B with some protection from frost and freezes.
