Ochna serrulata – Mickey Mouse Plant Live Flowering Shrub | 1–2 Feet Tall | Includes 3 Gallon Pot Fragrant Yellow Flowers | Decorative Red & Black Fruit | Pollinator Friendly

Add vibrant color and unique ornamental interest to your garden with Ochna serrulata, commonly known as the Mickey Mouse Plant. This live shrub is approximately 1 to 2 feet tall and ships in a 3-gallon nursery pot with a healthy, well-established root system.

In spring, this plant produces beautiful, fragrant yellow flowers that attract bees and butterflies. After flowering, it develops highly decorative fruit — shiny black berry-like fruits suspended beneath bright red sepals, creating the appearance of the famous “Mickey Mouse” face.

The leaves are long, narrow, and finely serrated (sharp-toothed), distinguishing it from Ochna integerrima, which has smoother, more oval leaves. The ripe fruits are also enjoyed by birds, making this a great addition to wildlife-friendly gardens.

Perfect for tropical landscapes, ornamental borders, or as a standout container plant.
