I went to Florida Colors Nursery yesterday and this followed me home: Gloria de Los Angeles, a seedling of India. The color is very unusual. Sort of between pink, red and terracotta.

What do you think of this? There isn't a single branch that isn't blooming... Not mine, I should add.

Here is a closeup of the large, somewhat cup-shaped bloom, which I call 'Pink Goblet'

Wow ... Wonderful blooms!!! I can almost smell the fragrance here. Smiling

Hetty: I'd love to see a picture of the flower of that Carter #2 ... it looks really, really nice!

Jonna: Very nice blooms you've got there in your roof top garden. I really LOVE that pink one in your second photo ... Gorgeous!!

Hetty: I'm in love with your 'Bella Napoli' - is the fragrance on that one as beautiful as the bloom? And wow, the Thailand Plumeria 'Kasetsilp' is amazing!

Mike: What great colors in those pretty blooms ... really nice!! Your allergy reaction sounds like me when I've had Hoya plants in bloom. The Hoya fragrance is usually detected in late evening and at night and just one plant can put out such strong fragrance that it makes it difficult to breathe.

* * * sigh * * * All these beauties makes me wish I lived in the Islands ... or at least much farther south in Florida! Green Grin!

I am even more glad you asked because I just found it is not in the database; I have meanwhile remedied that!

Oh - and Bella Napoli has a nice scent, but nothing particularly special.
