Singapore Plumeria in its second summer. (Plumeria obtusa)

Three branches and if it wasn't so late in the year,I would pot it up. I think its better to be root bound in winter..keep it from cold wet soggy soils.

It looks great! It loves a lot of heat; however, my tree burned up a few years ago and died. There's actually some trees in my neighborhood. They look gorgeous right now. For me this plumeria used to bloom anytime of the year...even in January and February, if the weather was warm to hot.

You ever see the dwarf forms Andy? I saw in the newspaper,Chery Tiggs the 70's super model was selling her B.H. home done in a Bali motif. The entrance had two small P.obtusa in full bloom. But,they couldn't have been more then 3' and a solid mass of leaves and flowers.
