Abstract: In order to provide the basic data of production practice to Ixora chinensis Lam. and its comprehensive development and utilization, the contents of K, Ca, Na, Mg, Fe, Mn, Cu, Zn, Cr, Ni were measured by the method of flame atomic absorption spectrometry(FAAS) in 13 parts of the Ixora chinensis Lam. The result showed that, 10 elements existed in all the organs of the Ixora chinensis Lam. The order of the average content was: K>Ca>Na>Mg/Fe>Zn>Mn>Cu>Cr>Ni. The content of the element was different among 13 parts of Ixora chinensis Lam.. The contents of Na, Ca, Fe, Cu, Zn and Ni of all the organs in the Ixora chinensis Lam. belonged to the normal contents of the elements in plants. The contents of the K, Mg and Mn in the Ixora chinensis Lam. was slightly lower than the general plants. The contents of the Cr in the Ixora chinensis Lam. was slightly higher than the general plants.
