Tropical Plants Plumeria

Any idea on an ID for this one ...

I know it's a longshot but ...

There's a beautiful large, heavy-blooming plumeria planted in-ground on a nearby street. I asked one of the residents if I could take a cutting and she said it was no problem. This one rooted without issues and bloomed immediately. It smells very strongly of roses.

Would love to know it's ID. I believe it's a common cultivar, well known.

My Aztec Gold is also in bloom ... Smells like peaches.

They both look great! Aztec Gold has great blooms.

I am not sure of the ID of the pink one but the petals do seem distinctive and something someone may recognize.

Hi Maria,

The NOid reminds me a lot of my JJ Melody, it gets a pink blush with hot/humid weather so would make sense with your climate.... are the leaves kind of skinny and long compared to other plumeria leaves?
