The listing, Hawaiian Slaughter Pink Plumeria x 5 has ended.
Frangipani SEED - Plumeria rubra ~ TROPICAL, EXOTIC & VERY RARE
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
SLAUGHTER PINK ~ Lovely large blooms of Pink fading to nearly White, 4 - 4-1/2" diameter. Huge bloom heads and a profuse bloomer. Very well-known cultivar.
Strong, sweet Citrus Fragrance.
Plumerias are easy to grow! If well grown, they can take 18-36 months from seed to first bloom.
In colder climates Plumeria should be grown in containers. They make beautiful potted plants for the patio or greenhouse. However, in milder climates, Plumeria can be grown outdoors in the ground, where they make small beautiful landscape trees.
When temperatures dip into the low 40's they may be stored in their containers, or uprooted carefully trying to take as much root as possible, and stored over winter in a heated basement or garage where temperatures are kept above freezing.
As soon as temperatures rise outdoors, they can be brought out and planted again. They will resume growth, leaf out and begin to grow as if nothing happened.
The real payoff comes during the early summer through the early autumn months, when very fragrant clusters of showy, waxy flowers provide the makings for your own Hawaiian Lei. There is absolutely nothing like the sweet Fragrance of Plumeria in flower, with fragrances of Jasmine, Citrus, Spices, Gardenia, and other indescribable Scents!
Flowering can last up to 3 months at a time producing new blooms every day. Once picked, a bloom can last for several days without wilting, if kept in water.
