I think so too Hetty, it is very common here and used a lot for landscaping because it does keep its leaves and flowers. I checked the smell on this new inflo of blooms and it does have a nice scent. The old inflo from last fall has lost all of its scent but is still on the plant with about 8 - 10 blooms.
I've forgotten what color the last one to bloom is, I'm kind of excited to see what I get. It was just a stick last year but has grown several feet and branched already. I can't remember where I got it. It makes me happy when I drive down the street because I can now see some of the plumerias up on the roof from the street.
Mike, I can see the cathedral from the roof looking in one direction, one of the colonial gates to the city looking another and - for a taste of modern - a huge gold statue to the angel moroni on the mormon temple about a block away. I'm surrounded by churches. I can hear the bells from about half a dozen churches ringing for mass every day, they all have a slightly different tone and they ring one after the other. It's also cool and breezy up there and at this time of the year, when it is hot and humid, it is really nice to sit out there at night. I really love living here.
