I've been attempting to take a picture of this for a couple of weeks now and I always get distracted.
Anyways. I have no idea what type this is other than I got it a couple years back at either Lowes or HD.
These get full sun from about 9am till sunset.

I've never been able to get an inflow. I gave up on Plumeria a long, long, long, time ago. I could keep them growing and looking healthy, but never did get a bloom of any of the ones I tried. Even bought one with blooms, and for 5 years it never bloomed again...I just don't have the magic touch when it comes to plumeria. :(

This is a picture of flowers on a plumeria I purchased in 2006 at A.J.'s market. It did finally bloom last year and is now blooming again. I was not aware this plant even had an inflo on it until I walked out on the patio last week and noticed an incredible fragrance. It was all from this small flower. Linda

My plumies are so pretty and so tall...no blooms. I was going to glue oleander blooms on it and trick you.

Back when I was going to trick Brittany (and Susie took a photo of it!) I even thought of using these Katie Ruella blooms.
