My Rainbow Plumeria is growing again, now that it's spring. It'll be about two months before it starts to flower again. Photo taken Mar. 25, 2013.

Thanks! I hope the temps warm up for you soon!
It's been very cold and snowy throughout most of the U.S. Even all of Florida has been having well below normal temps.
Here in Southern California, it's been warm, nice and sunny. Only around 70ºF (21ºC) at the coast; however, inland areas (like where I live) it's been 75º - 84ºF (24 -29ºC)...just perfect!

Yes, it's perfect weather! I love it!
Yes, all Plumeria rubra hybrids loose all to most of their leaves in winter, that's normal. My Plumeria obtusa 'Singapore' which is evergreen doesn't...although, every 3 - 5 years it looses all its leaves (which is common even in the tropics). This past Jan. and Feb. my Plumeria obtusa 'Singapore' didn't bloom like last year's winter (which was very warm to hot). It was because the temps were below normal for those two months.
Which species of Plumeria do you have?
