Nice! I have a Flamingo that I picked up at the end of the season last year, but it hasn't bloomed yet. I haven't looked at Lowes for JJ yet this year ... trying to be good. I actually 'Marie Kondo'-ed my current collection (does this plumeria spark joy? LOL.) and gave a bunch away that just weren't performing for me, or that I wasn't really into.

How can I get in on this advanced warning system? I'm in Phoenix and my Lowe's hasn't had any yet. I've been checking weekly. :-(

If you can keep a secret...they are also confirmed at home depot. Seen lot of jubilee and merlot.

So nice of them!!!

I've been checking too and finally asked the person in charge of the garden area. He told me OCTOBER! I said no way, last year I got my first plant the first week of June and it was one of the last two left!

what city are you in?

For me I am on the east coast of Florida. Hopefully they are making their way across the US.

I remember last year Florida was really late getting them? Anyone else?

That's a true Plumeria enthusiast !! Love this lady... Lol

They have your back Roxanne!! lol...

See you soon. I am getting so excited!!!

laura

we are too...maybe a shipment here while you are staying... :-))))

Our Lowes got a shipment, but not our Home Depot. There were mostly 1-gal Jubilees. I picked up a 2-gal Serenade. I also saw a few others: Valentine, Star White, Afrique, Xanadu.

Well, so much for paring down my collection. I picked up Vertigo, Adagio, Allure, and Enchanted. Both Lowes and HD have them now! I also saw J105 (with a big inflo), Divine, Dulcemia, Jenny, Champagne, Fool's Gold, Incognito, Sahara, Mini White, Thumbalina, Cal Sunset, premium pink, and some large (5 gal) mystery tags ($60).

Wow daogirl!! Awesome! I only have two JJ so I have room for more ;)

I'm also bad at downsizing...picked up Mystique, Firestorm, Rhonda, Cote d'or, and a mystery that looks like Desert Sunrise. Also picked up a Jenny for my grandpa! I did take 6 of my plants to grandpa as well so it evened out. Lol

Saw a lot of variety in the Lowe's I went to....now if only I could find something like Cabaret or Valkyrie. :D

Hoping next shipment will have those for you Jackie....eyes wide open.

I think the Mystique was the biggest score I'll get this year and I'm ok with that. :) Anything else is a bonus!

wish I had seen those Valkarie for you....hopefully he will come to the gathering and you can tell him congrats... :-)))

well, now all the Cstars are flooded in with the few JJs left....

:(

Florida Lowes had some JJ in the Brandon area last month.

Rox - same here. It's a little early for that ...

We got our shipment. I showed restraint. Only saw Sahara, Dynamite, Dulcemia, Desert Sunrise and Ken's White.

hhhhmmmm....hoping for better on our next delivery....next week?

Can I ask why you guys don't just order from JJ directly?

Honest que.

Shipping costs.

I have ordered from them before and it was great. I just prefer not to pay almost as much in shipping as I did for the plants.

Ok so after looking back on some Desert sunrise pics here I did go back and get one. The plumeria didn't look as happy as I remembered them last year.

dupefl - The Lowe's and Home Depot prices are cheaper than buying directly from JJ. Plus the hunt is fun as you never know what will show up! I picked up a Mystique for $30 that would be $75 at JJ.

All good reasons...

I live in costal Brevard Co Fl.

I will have give my local lows a ring.

and Malika at the other store.

Haha if you didn't get that Malika I probably would have gone over for it. Need.....reatraint....

Lowe's Waterford Lakes (Orlando) had a bunch there today, and it looked like a brand new shipment.

No real rare varieties were there. The ones I did see were Desert Sunrise, Inca Gold, Red Jack, Super Round, and Jubilee

I left a Purple Jack that I should have snagged but was trying to be good as there's other plants I need to spend money on first this year.

You guys are killing me... Lol!!!

great flight Laura!!!!

Anything in South Carolina possibly?

Lowes in Waterford Lakes (Orlando) just got another fresh shipment in today. They had Thai Splash, Jack's Mini White, Red Jack, Inca Gold, and Super Round. Oh yea, also one J105, but I took that one home with me :)

congrats...our shipments have dwindled out....

I guess I should check the one in San Bruno, on the San Francisco Mid Peninsula, I'm about 20 minutes south of the only Lowes I know!!!
