Here's a list of flowering plants that you may consider for your garden.
Heliconias, kalachuchi, bougainville, orchids, medinilla magnifica and mums. If you're in the Philippines, I can tell you to go to the Manila Seedlings to check out the wide variety available of each kind.

Flowers For Tropical Climate
2016-12-10 19:19:21 · answer #2 · answered by ? 3 · 0⤊ 0⤋
Obviously tropical flowers e.g. hibiscus, boganvilleas etc. However conditions can be similated e.g. in hot houses. This way, you can grow flowers from other countries - roses, sun flowers etc, etc. Plants are generally quite hardy: however if you grow them in pots i.e. a smaller environment then you have to watch the conditions more e.g. if raining then not too much water. Other things to watch for are the amount of sun and shade e.g the sun goes from East to West. How is your house facing? Some plants like those with variegated leaves need lots of sun. Other indoor plants that thrive in the tropics as undergrowth in the forest cannot take sun even though they thrive in the tropical climate. This is a fun hobby. However you get out what you put in. To create artistic effects you need to know the size of various types of plants. You need to prune to "train" the plant and provide the shape. With interest and enthusiasm, you start small and read and try! You will have lots of fun. Good Luck
