Hetty, please explain the differences in the obtusa and the rubra plumeria. If you crossed an obtusa with a rubra, what would it then be?

The reason it's so hard to lose weight when you get up in age is because your body and your fat have become good friends.

Plumeria rubra and Plumeria obtusa are different species of the genus Plumeria.
If you crossed them, the offspring would be called Plumeria obtusa x rubra.

Okey, dokey, Hetty. Thanks. By the way, have you ever seen a label showing such a cross?
