Pure as the driven snow


A cutting of plumeria alba taken from mature wood makes itself known. Plumeria, commonly known as frangipani, will bloom from now until October. A tropical 'white garden' ( Sissinghirst meets S. Beach) made up of plumeria, white orchids of various types, brugmansia, peace lilly, etc., stuffed into a Caribbean cottage garden would be right nice to say the least.


1. SUN, SUN, SUN, SUN
2. DON'T OVERWATER-- IT WILL DROP LEAVES AND GET LEGGY
3. PROPOGATE BY CUTTINGS TAKEN FROM MATURE WOOD, AT LEAST 1/2" ROUND 6-10" LONG
4. LET THE CUTTINGS DRY BEFORE PLANTING
