Cute buddies, Look what I had when I got home from work this evening. I wanted to take a picture before the heavy rains hit and knocked the blooms off. This is a plumeria that was started from a small stick brought from Hawaii. This little piece of Heaven sure smells lovely. Wishing you you all gently ocean breezes and the sweet smell of plumeria!

Yes, it is that time of year, and we have 3 tropical storms working out there. No real threat to us, but we need the rain that it brings.

Oh they smell heavenly, You must really have a green thumb to be able to root this. It looks so healthy *4U

We call them Frangipani here in Aus. They were my Mum's favourite flower so i have several growing in pots here at my DH's home and in the front garden at my home on the north coast. Yours looks like a really healthy specimen, it obviously loves Florida and you did a great job striking it.
Hugs n roses, M

Yes, Frangipani in Florida too, but I don't think quite as pretty - may just be because we enjoyed the islands so much - do you think?

Beautiful - we also call them Frangipani here in South Africa. There is also a pink coloured variety, which is stunning. You obviously have green fingers! *4U

No - really black thumb! This is a true exception. Florida has Frangipani here too, but a little different. My daughter has a rainbow one, and the younger daugter a larger white flower with white center. I think we are going to have to try to prune and see if we can start more plants. Thanks for responding.

* 4 U for that green thumb! I've brought those little plumeria sticks home twice now, and each time they seem to "implode" after about 6 months! I'm so jealous!!!
