Wow tropicalzone, you are definitely living up to your screen name. All of them look great. I haven't had grasshoppers, but have seen some damage from Japanese beatles.
Great collection.
Dave

Nice plumerias! They are interesting plants. I like them. Whats your favorate plumeria?
Again,nice plumerias!

My Divine (thanks to Laura) is using this season to get established, as a newly-rooted cutting. I'm sure hoping it will bloom next year! Hope it looks as good as yours!

Beautiful garden, Alex! All your plants are looking great; it must exciting to see all the inflos coming along.

Jen

Thanks dave! Japanese bettles are another problem here, but the grasshoppers have been much worse this year for some reason!

Thanks Hunter! A lot of my plumerias have no ID's, but my favorite plumeria for me is Divine. But if I was in the tropics, I think that Plumeria obtusa would be my favorite! Glossy evergreen leaves, and giant fragrant blooms! Doesnt get much better than that (if the blooms were in different colors it would be even better!)

Thanks Dave! My Divine did the same thing as yours when I first got it. It took a year to establish and then made an inflo with no buds indoors and then started its crazy blooming every year since.

Thanks Jen! No matter how long I grow plumerias for, I dont think there will ever be a time when Im not excited for inflos. Im always checking them and I know Im not the only one!

Thanks everyone!

My No ID started blooming yesterday! Hopefully all the rain we got today didnt damage the one bloom I have on it so far. Actually come to think about it, I think I'll name this plumeria "The Rainmaker" since every time this plumeria blooms, it pours! We got 8.44 inches of rain today and that alone sets a record for the rainiest August ever recorded!
Anyways, here are some blooms! Smaller than many plumeria flowers I know, but the fragrance is pretty original and its my only red plumeria that has bloomed for me so far (plus its my first plumeria I ever got so It will always be special for that). The one problem is that I have to stand on a chair to see the blooms since its about 8 feet tall

8.44 inches of rain. That is half of our annual rain total. Love the richness of the pink/red in that flower. Bill

HI Alex!!

Your PLumeria look amazing!!!! They are all so healthy and seem to be growing faster than last year! More inflos, just like me!! I think that our patience has finally paid off, so we are being treated for waiting for sooooooooooo long!!!!

The California Sunset looks great as does the Scott Pratt! (Makes me proud!!!) : )

your noid is a beauty, i love the rich deep color !!

In one of my post, you had asked about the name of one of mine that looks like your bloom. That is a cutting called "Sparky" one of Bud's cuttings. This has finally started to root and has pushed up an inflo. It does look close in color!!! Ill get a better pic of this bloom for you and you can compare!!

I love the varigated Plumie, she is a beauty!!!

Dave, i cant wait for your Divine to bloom for you. Like Alex mentioned, once it starts...watch out!! It love to have more water than all of my other Plumeria. I still havent figured that out yet, but i keep on giving her water and it responds nicely!!!

I cant believe you received that much rain!! We have had some rain on and off, but not like what you are having up north of us!!! My rain barrals are full from the rain yesterday, but i only collect 40 gallons and that seems to go to quickly when i water!!

Take care everyone...

Laura in VB

Thanks Bill! 8.44 inches is definitely a lot, even for here! I know that there are lots of cities in the West that dont even get that in a year! I won't have to water the plants again for a few days!

Laura, I think your right, patience is very important because my plumerias are also blooming more than ever (I think I had more plumerias blooming last summer, but this summer I have more inflos total).
Plumeria "Sparky" might be the one! I couldnt get a good pic of it on google, but it looks like its red with a yellow center like mine, and the habit of the inflo looks very similar (lots of space between groups of buds).
Im glad that your happy the way your cuttings grew! I am too because I was really nervous they would never take root, but they are growing very fast and the scott pratt already seems like the roots fill its pot.

Thanks!

Whoa, Alex, where do you put an 8-ft. tall plumeria over winter?

Here's a preview of your Pretty Princess

Jen

Jandey, I have high ceilings in the room where I put it so it goes pretty well in there. The hardest part is getting it through the door without breaking the stems, but so far so good! I might have to prune it next summer because its growing a ton!
That pretty princess is beautiful! It has way more color than mine does (probably because mine always blooms in the fall or indoors!). I cant wait to see it bloom though!!
-Alex

Congrats! Beautiful color on that Noid! But wow, 8 ft!!I'd have to stand on a ladder not a chair :-)
Your plants look very healthy!

Thanks sunseeker! I was thinking about pruning it next year, but instead, I think Im just going to keep it unpruned as long as possible! I really want to see how tall it can get! I think some more blooms will be opening tomorrow so I will post pics of those too!
