    Beautiful! Great plant -- and for so many reasons. Blooms are not large, but it makes up for it in other ways.

    Mine now has 7 inflos on it. Four are in bloom. Probably 20 tips now. It has been the best bloomer this summer. It took a while, but is gaining momentum.

    I've noticed my trees wernt quite as dark this year as well, less intensity from the sun this year.

    Mine has two decent inflos on it, it's a new acquisition for me that I got due to rave reviews! Pleasant scent and very pretty!

    I gave mine away a few years ago to a friend that was just getting started with plumeria. Wish I'd kept it now.

    One day I can only hope my Divine will look this good.

    Absolutely stunning, Laura. I am so envious of your Plumeria's and their blooms. Everyone else's also. I will just have to enjoy and live vicariously
    through everyone else's for now.
    What a treat.

    Hi Dave!!!

    I almost got rid of this one.. Glad I kept it.. It is a beauty!! It is just lighter than other years, I guess I moved it in a different place and it caused the coloration to stay light.

    Is this all from the cutting I gave you years ago! I can't believe it? If it is, I, so I pressed!! Awesome...

    Jason... This one is lighter, but others like J -105 and Royal Hawaiian are darker. So is Texas Aggie. It is very dark.. Lovely tho!!!

    Lonnie... You need another one!! Lol....

    Roxanne. All of mine are in containers.. All... ;-)

    Kitty.. I'm sure you will have beautiful blooms soon. It does take time and these do teach patience.. You are on the right track though!!! Thank you for the kind compliment!!!

    Thank you Rick!! You can have as many pictures as you want!! You have a beautiful collection of adeniums!! They are gorgeous!!! Thank you for the kind compliment !! So kind !!

    Take care,

    laura, yes it was the plant you gave me. Cutting was it?

    Anyway, the cutting had two tips as I recall. After it got growing it fell over in a storm. One tip broke off. The other tip said 'Now's my chance!' and shot up 2 feet (is this REALLY a 'Divine'?).

    Then it bloomed in the winter (under lights) and quickly branched. It has been blooming and branching quite densely ever since. It's almost 5 feet high now!

    Love your divine pics Mrs. Laura! Divine has been my best bloomer this year and is on its 5th inflo of the season! I have been getting only a flower or two at a time but looks like this inflo is going to be loaded. Thanks for sharing!

    I have a Divine which appears rooted. I can see some roots in the clear 32 oz container. It has 3 leaves but the stalk at the top and middle is very soft. Near the dirt it is hard. The tip is green for a little ways. I used the egg method. Should I take out of container and plant in a regular pot and start watering like a new plant or should I wait for more roots? Next month I will have to bring inside for the winter in the same rooting container. Not sure it will make it. Any suggestions. I'm a newbie and don't want to lose it.

    A great variety to have. Mine seems to spread its blooms out over the season versus all branches pushing blooms in the early summer.

    Kitnor, If you can seen some roots and it has leaves which are fully open I would leave it in the current container a bit longer and give it a very light watering, maybe add a drop of superthrive and/or heavy misting to help it rehydrate.

    Why do you have to bring it inside so soon considering you are FL 9A? You should have an easy 2 months before night temps drop into the 40s.

    Thanks for your response. I thought they would start losing leaves in Oct. I'm a newbie, remember. At this time it's my understanding I would need to bring my rooting cuttings inside. I have grow lights and heating a pad.

    K gives great advise!!!

    You can wait. I bring mine in when nights get down around 40- 45. No less for me.. Others will go a little lower, but my weather can change and drop fast.

    Great set up for cuttings with light and heat mat. They will be happy!!

    Kit. You are doing a great job. Keep the cutting in the container like K mentioned.

    Have a great night!!

    Take good care,

    Laura
