It is said that the origin of this flower is from India, which then because the practice of trade to make Indian citizens must wander and take to the neighboring countries in the vicinity is what makes Jeumpa flowers then spread to Indonesia. To cultivate this flower, you just need to plant seeds, it will then grow about 3 months later and start flowering after the plant is about 5 years old.
