Plumeria rubra
Family: Apocynaceae
Cultivation
Frangipani is a plant of hot, dry to moderate rainfall areas, at elevations up to 600 metres. Plants succeed in climates with a pronounced dry season, when they are deciduous and flower on the bare branches, as well as in more humid conditions when they will remain evergreen. One of the easiest of trees to grow, it is adaptable to most soil conditions though it prefers a fertile, well-drained soil in a sunny position.
