'Pinwheel Rainbow' (Plumeria rubra) differs from other Plumeria varieties mainly by its very narrow petal shape (blooms are reminiscent of a propeller or pinwheel), which gives its flowers special elegance and grace. Colors range from yellow and orange to light and dark pink. The flowers have a mild and very sweet scent.

Description

General information on Frangipani (Plumeria):
Each individual plant blooms at a different time, making accurate predictions impossible. In our experience, the flowering period in this country is usually in the mid to late summer months. It is wrong to assume that flowers will only appear above a branching. Also saplings with no branching can produce flowers. Instead, they are most likely to branch after flowering! Plumeria prefer to grow in loose soil mixed with lava, expanded clay or coarse sand and are thankful for a regular spraying of the leaves (high humidity). The care of the water-storing plants (succulents) varies depending on the season: in summer, the plants need a constant supply of water. Drought will cause the leaves to discolorate and fall down. Add liquid compound fertilizer in half concentration to the watering water 3 to 4 times a month. In winter, when most of the leaves fall off, it is important to avoid wetness, which would rot the base of the plant. Therefore, water your Plumeria little and at greater intervals - but not “not at all”.
