I have a few bunches of blooms now, and a couple of huge seed pods. My plumeria (we call them Flor de Mayo) are on the roof, it's sort of like a utility porch here. I have a clothesline, a cow trough pond, and a bunch of plants that need really full, all day sun which I don't have in the garden. Also the dogs run around up there, that's Cuba in the picture.

These are the two most common types of plumeria here, I think the white and yellow one is a species. The pink and orange one loses most of its leaves in the winter but the white/yellow one only gets a little sparse but continues to bloom.

These are all of the plumeria, they are looking a little thirsty in this pic. We are nearing the end of our rainy season and I hadn't realized that it hadn't rained for several days. I have to now start remembering to check more often to see if I need to water.

A day without sunshine is like, you know, night.
