My largest plumeria has gotten bigger this year. It's so huge it's taking over a large part of the back yard. I need to cut it back a little next year. It's loaded with flowers because of the 10 day horrible heatwave. Photo taken Oct. 4, 2016.
Comments on this photo
Yes, it's taking over the backyard.
I bought it as a small plant in 2000 or 2001, it's been in the ground since 2004.
Here's a pics of when it was smaller:

Is that the same one that lost a branch in 2009? It is doing well.

Yes, it lost a big branch during the Santa Ana winds in September 2009. It's completely recovered. It needed to be staked, though. I can't imagine how big it would be if it didn't loose that large branch. It also lost some branches in a really big storm in 2010 or 2011.
