It's looking good! My trees are just starting to bud.

This tree is very, very old! Most likely more than 100 years old.

Plumeria rubra is native to Mexico. I'm guessing some of the really large trees with very thick trunks could be hundreds of years old. Plumeria is an extremely long-lived tree!

Here's a photo of a gorgeous 50 years old tree here in San Diego.

Wow. That is a beautiful specimen. Wonderful shape too. Some around here seem to be too spindly for my taste.

LOL! It's probably because they haven't completely leafed out yet.

Here's some in full leaf (most are my photos).
