Jatropha Multifida L

Coral plant, also known as Jatropha multifida, is a single-trunked evergreen shrub or small tree native to Mexico, Central America, and Brazil. It is now grown as an ornamental shrub in tropical and subtropical places around the world, with huge, lobed and split orbicular leaves and a long showy display of coral-red flowers. It normally grows to a height of 6-10 feet in gardens, but in ideal conditions, it can reach a height of 15-20 feet.

Jatropha comes from the Greek ιατρος (iatros), a healer, and τροφη (trophé) food, while multifida is from the Latin multifidus, many-cleft, referring to the leaves.
