I kind of agree with Stewart, Jeff. Your camera could use a bit of "tweaking", and I am a good tweaker. I promise you'll get the camera back............eventually. Whistling

Nice photos, nice plants, and beautiful flowers.

@PlnatMania says
Android - Now I have a google account (so I have Gmail, Photos, Google Docs, etc...) When I take photos with my Android (since I am logged into google on this phone) any picture that I take will automatically be sent to my Google Photos (when your phone connects to a wi-fi connection)- I then go to my laptop - open Google photos - download photo - upload photo to forum

I have a S7 Edge that sends pix to Photobucket. I am not liking that any more since I fill up the FREE account so fast. I have my photos scattered among accounts at 'Bucket! I never thought of using Google Photos. Thanks for this. Going to figure out how to use it now and find Google Photos on my laptop.

@shadygreenthumb

From google look in the upper right (edited due to me typing on a iphone screen) hand side. There are dots that form a square. Click that which will show you all the google apps. Photos access is on the second page

Unfortunately, you can't time these things. Some buds will open in just a day or two and some are still a week away. My guess for this plant is somewhere in between.

Soon and Very Soon !!!!!



Ken,
Have you ever used Bone Meal prior to flowers forming? I have heard that the phosphorus helps this but I am unsure how it affects the overall health of the plant.

I use to use both bone meal and blood meal but stopped using those products many years ago. I had "critters" digging in my landscape and pots, attracted by the scents of those two products. I do use Bloom fertilizers though. I typically use a general purpose, balanced fertilizer when I put my plumeria outside, but after there is good leaf formation. After 4-6 wks., I will use Bloom fertilizer every third feeding. By mid-August, I don't use the Bloom fertilizers any longer. Then around mid-September, I quit fertilizing altogether, unless the plants are in bloom, and I continue fertilizing them, using 1/4-1/2 the recommended dilution rate. I will continue this weak fertilization even into winter for those in bloom and in the solarium.

For all I know, since I am anything but expert here, I am breaking every rule in the book. I just do what seems to work for me with my climate and my growing conditions.

Nope! Not yet! The best part about having all these blooming flowers is in the morning, I make my coffee and run outside to check my plants. It's like anticipating Santa Claus, but every morning.

Yes I was doing the coffee runs too Jen !! I'm also a firm believer in Santa Claus !!! I've got another Plumeria with a inflo on it that I think may be a different color than the red ones I've had so far...I'm anxiously awaiting ...But that one still has some time to go..
