Plumeria

The Birth Of The Flower
God spoke! and from the arid scene
Sprang rich and verdant bowers,
Till all the earth was soft with green....
He smiled: and there were flowers.~Mary McNeil Fenolloso

I like that the Plumeria blooms in clusters. Once they begin blooming they continue on for quite a while. As the blossoms drop off, others replace them. This pretty thing, although having bloomed earlier in the summer, is once again producing gorgeous white flowers...... click on photos....
