WOW! The real white Plumeria with lots of fragrance & Tropical touch.frankly speaking this round leafed variety is the true wild Plumeria.the others are rubbish.

Re: Blooms of the day
I love your Daylily. Beautiful color. I have six different varieties of Plumeria and all are from seeds. One seedling bloomed last week. I will share a photo soon.

Re: Blooms of the day
The round leaved plumeria is a great bloomer but the other varieties are good too... here in Karachi peach, burgundy and red varieties are in full bloom now and are looking breathtaking..

Re: Blooms of the day
Sir, very different in different colors.. the burgundy and red ones smell like tea roses (to me ).. and with abundance of blooms you can feel the fragrance at a distance... though the intensity is a bit less then the round leaved variety..

Re: Blooms of the day
Izhar you are right but the fragrance of other colors do not match the whites.another thing the other colors also get fade with hot sun.my all time favorite is white.i have seen the whites flowering in Karachj,s nurseries,they look so beautiful.your city is the perfect for tropicals.what i liked in Karachi is oleander in so many colors.hey man i have even seen tropical birds selling there,Flamingos.i brought a pair but died as the winter arrived some 2 years back.i think i m getting off the topic.so let me end.

Crinums come in crops.
First crop
I like the bud more than flower.
Plumeria ? the colour fades with sun, fragrant under the nose.
Never without few flowers?
