Just remember that they do NOT come true from seed; the upside of that is that each seedling is a new cultivar and could be something exciting you can name yourself. Here is an example: My seedling 'Sugar Plum Fairy' grown from a seed of 'Candy Stripe'

Ill be looking for another Penang Peach variety. I'm collecting them.
Maybe a Musk Rainbow/George Brown. Maybe a California sunset, I'm not sure. When I run out of those, I plan on dwarf plumeria, (Watermelon, Dwarf Richard Criley, etc)
Will also be looking for another P. Stenopetala (grafted) standard, as well as seed, if there are any to be found..
I have one from Florida Colors, but I'd like to hedge my bets, I would be very sad if anything ever happened to it.
Will also be looking for P. Cubensis, or Dominguensis seed and one of these years , when funds permit, would like to try P. filifolia, if I can find it!🌞

That's quite a wish list! With some very unique ones for sure. I do like that Musk Rainbow/George Brown!

So my Tahitian Sunset finally bloomed (indoors) and it looks nothing like the photos I've seen! Still beautiful, but too similar to my other plumie to make me too excited.

This time of year and at your latitude it is unlikely that you get good strong color. Even here in Florida winter blooms are pale.
