Plants 2 - Frangipani

Frangipani, or Plumeria in Latin, is a plant we know from Australia, although originally from Mexico, Brazil and Central America. Plumeria is a relative of the Baobab, and you'll see it by the strange stem.

But it's all about the flowers. They are fragrant as frangipani. Sweet, but not yucky sweet,
if you get my drift.

There are white-yellow ones,

and pink ones, although the flowers of this one are white-yellow, though they have a pink edge when just open.

oo, a wild colors version!

Oh well, bought another few. They're very well suited for un-deep soil as we have at the edge of the terrace. Frangipani is great in containers too, as they don't have large root systems. And, very important,
they're from tropical regions, so they love the full sun.

So today's task is to turn the soil once more, add more compost, remove the stones, and prepare for planting.

And a job it is, in this weather. Lucky we have a pool for cooling off. Funny, our pool is green-yellow-white, too.
