Stewart, why do you suspect FMV? Plumeria are well-known for splash-petals because their color genes are weak and often unstable. I have done quite a bit or research on this, have been in contact with several PhD's in Hawaii who specialize in plumeria (one is even a plant geneticist), and they say that viruses are rare and when present, will almost always be seen in leaf defects. Do the leaves of this plant look deformed or diseased?

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.
