On the staging is my pride and joy my Frangipani...the only reason I heat the greenhouse. In back corner is my lemon tree, on side shelf are gazinias and the tall plants in pots are my bottle brushes {Callistemon} grown from seed and now 2 years old. They take up a lot of room. I have left 1 outside under the lean~to and if that survives these will be out there next year.............the rest of the shelf is more fuchsias

Frangipani, I've always been frightened to try these. Do they need a lot of special care?

No toto, just lots of light and heat....very little watering and a very high potash feed....................

Thanks Milky. Perhaps I chance one. I've seen pictures of the flowers but I have never seen one in flower. I understand that they smell delightfully.

Yes thats what I understand too...I have grown mine from seed and its coming up for 3 years now, and Im hoping this is going to be the year it flowers. you can see it on the staging. Its the pot with gravel on the top and a maisture thermometer stuck in it..............Looks like a stick about 2 feet high ............
