I love Plumeria! The scent, the shape, the texture, the amazing number of varieties and shades of color. I have a plumeria pendant which I wear all the time. I tease my hubby that if I was ever brave / crazy / drunk enough to get a tattoo it would be a plumeria. The hubby took this picture and sent it too me. He made my day. I know it is possible to grow them in So Cal if you baby them. I would love to try.
