A 2007 Thai introduction produces large clusters of 2 to 3" red to purple-red and yellow flowers. The petals are overlapping, round, golden-yellow with red to purple-red area along edge and red veining spreading from the base. The flower buds are a dark red with the petioles dark red to almost black. The fragrance is a medium sweet honey with a hint of wild strawberry. This is a most unusual Plumeria with an interesting and stunning color combination. Has large medium dark oblong leaves.
