Klahanie,
Yes, lots of flowers on this tree. This was just one flower spike.
The SD Zoo is an incredible place. It’s a world-class zoo and botanical gardens.

Beautiful flowers, Andy! I just wish I could grow them on the balcony!
I fell in love with them when I saw a picture of them for the first time ever when my wife got her first laptop - aeons ago - & the background of her home screen had some beautiful Plumerias! 🤣

Thanks. They’re so widely grown here because of their drought tolerance and of course, the flowers and different fragrances on different varieties. Some varieties have sweet lemon, spicy, perfume, sweet peach, baby powder and jasmine fragrances.

I didn't know there were many fragrances in these plants!

Good to know, Andy!

Yes, lots of fragrances and many colors of flowers.
This is another reason why they’re so widely grown here.
I have a dozen varieties of plumeria myself.

Lots of flowers Delonix. Lovely.
We have been to San Diego few times but never visited their ZOO, unfortunately.
I have seen some incredible fires near San Diego (on TV). Hopefully they are not affecting you.
