We visited my Mom today and brought lunch for us, my sisters, my aunt and Mom. It was a good visit, seeing family that we don’t get to see that often.
In Mom’s garden, there are several plumeria plants which have these beautiful five-petaled flowers. Click on the image to enlarge.
Wikipedia has this information about these lovely flowers:
Plumeria (common name Frangipani) is a genus of flowering plants in the dogbane family, Apocynaceae. It contains seven or eight species of mainly deciduous shrubs and small trees. They are native to Central America, Mexico, the Caribbean, and South America as far south as Brazil but can be grown in tropical and sub-tropical regions.
My wife has one in a big pot on the back porch.
Very pretty when they bloom!
I like the way they smell. So light and fresh.
