Red Champa
Plumeria plants, sometimes referred to as Frangipani and Lei blossoms, are actually tiny trees.
When the temperature begins to cool in the fall in areas with harsh winters, plumerias can be cultivated in containers and taken inside. The Hawaiian lei flower and frangipani have additional popular names. Plumeria trees have a wide range of coloured blooms. The tree itself has a peculiar appearance; the coarse, deciduous leaves, measuring 12 to 20 inches long, are only grouped at the tips of the thick, sausage-like, rough, grey-green limbs.
