Plumeria

Plumeria flowers are endemic to warmer regions such as Mexico, the Caribbean, and Central America. They grow as shrubs or small trees and have a delightful fragrance during the night. Though there is no nectar, their smell tricks moths into pollinating them.


The moths jump from plant to plant with their pollen as they search for nectar. In Southeast Asia, the plumeria is a sacred flower with distinct long petals that plume out from a small center. To thrive in your garden they should be deeply watered but allowed to fully dry out before watering again.
