WOW! that's gorgeous. I could ignore that one for years if I eventually got a bloom like that.
A day without sunshine is like, you know, night.

Yes, this is one of my fragrant plumeria, I am not very good at describing the fragrance but it is pleasant fragrance.

Puu Kahea, still not quite as large petals as when it originally bloomed for me in 2012 but it is getting there.



Here's what the first blooms looked like


Then in 2013 I was really disappointed how tiny the blooms were with no curl, almost like a totally different plant.


Hopefully since it is early in the season, I will get the chance to see the big blooms again this season.

I hope so too Hetty, most of my plumerias blooms are consistent size and shape except for Puu Kahea, if I got these as cuttings I would think I got a wrong one.

Bill Moragne is a beauty! Lovey dubby

Y'all both have such wonderful plumeria. I am just now seeing some inflorescences forming. I am several weeks away from flowers though. Sighing!

A few of my cuttings that were taken last October have started rooting. I potted up two today. I hate to tell the lady that donated the cuttings to me that fall IS NOT the time to take cuttings. She was so kind giving me all those cuttings and five of them had seed pods as well. I probably lost 25% over the winter. Not a single one of those five with seed pods that I grafted last October has been successfully grafted. All the cuttings rotted at the junction and I have now removed them from their root stock, cut them back to healthy tissue, and will either try to root them or try to graft them one more time. I need more daylight hours! Sighing!

Typhoon Dolphin did this. Crying At least it wasn't uprooted like some of my other trees (not plumeria). Another couple of years of growing to do. Sighing!

Fortunately that Plumeria pudica pretty much roots while you wait.
