In spite of Hurricane Irma's interference, this is shaping up to be a banner year for blooms. Here are a few recent ones:


Leticia



Heart of Gold



Strawberries and Cream




Ellen # 15




Wakwo (aka Wah Gor)

Just gorgeous blooms, Hetty! I don't have any of them blooming right now.

Omg! They are going to explode tomorrow! Plumeria 'California Sunset', Jungle Jack's

Aztec Gold

Tons of inflows. Can't wait for them to all open up!

Beautiful! It's such an exciting time of year.
I was thrilled this morning to see this beauty - an import from Sicily and their local pride: Palermitana Tonda

India


Cancun Pink

Beautiful blooms!

A few more new bloomers - eye candy!




Som Raya




Guadalupe Fernandez




Linda




Riviera Rainbow




Safari

First bloom for me with this plant. Vasithee.

That's gorgeous, Michael! One of the large ones I got from you has buds, but it's taking forever to show them to me.

Evn though hard rains knocked off flowers, California Sunset still shows off.

I've been lurking and at all these beautiful Plumie blooms. I no longer grow them but if/when we move back south to our house in Sebastian later this year, I might have to order a couple to plant in the garden and I hope to get a couple of cuttings from neighbors who grow them.

I had Plumeria (Plumeria rubra 'Intense Rainbow') that I got as a cutting in a trade years ago. I grew it in a container for many years and then planted it in the ground when we bought our house in Sebastian in 2015. I rooted only one cutting that grew to about 3 feet and I gave it to a neighbor about a year ago. My 5 foot tree got damaged in Hurricane Irma last fall when a huge Maple branch crushed it. I thought it could be saved but the last time my husband went to our house down there he said it was totally dead.

A few of our neighbors there grow Plumeria so I'm hoping to score a cutting or two when we move back.

@plantladylin, I'll be happy to send you a few starts for postage when you come back to southern Florida. Just let me know .

Hetty, that is so kind of you! I'd be glad to pay postage and handling for a few cuttings ... I'll let you know once we move back south.

Kauka Wilder - She didn't bloom last year, but she is full of inflows this year.

In this hot, 90+ degree heat here in Central Texas how often should I be watering my 2yr old Plumeria?

Chris I water mine almost every day in this heat. We have the same temperatures as you. I have an irrigation system with a WiFi controller so I can skip days when needed with no effort.

If you have well draining soil (which is a must) you can water them at will. We have had copious amounts of rain here in Florida in the past week and all the Plumeria are happy! See?
