Fascinating. I grow many of these beauties. I am not familiar with Wax Mallow, Thuja, Rangoon Creeper, Justicia, Ashoka, Bryophyllum, Calladium, Duranta, Ixora and Jatropha. Thank you for the introduction.
I am just listing out the plants around me. All of these has their own growing habit and importance. Thanks 🙂
Many of these are house plants in England and also garden plants. I have quite a few of these in my house and garden
You can use them as indoor, outdoor plants 🙂

Has anybody ever shopped at Good Nature Evapor Vape Shop located in 3441 GA-34 E, Suite G?
Very nice flowers and plants! Thanks for liking my page.
Welcome
That is an impressive list of plants from all over the world. I assume that the plants with Napali names are native to Napal or are very common in gardens.
It was interesting to see Himalayenne Balsam as this is a beautiful, but problematic plant in Northern Europe, as it often out competes native plants in shaded places. I am sure it is lovely in its right habitat
There are common plants in Nepal (most are native) and also around the globe. The habitat and purpose of grow makes it useful or sometimes problematic.
Thanks for the article!
