Photo of Pooba's Kona Hybrid

When Darin (Pooba on eBay) had some Dutch auctions going, I bought a few cuttings from him. A few of them have inflo's! This one is beautiful, but it does appear to be mislabeled. It is not the registered cultivar Kona Hybrid, which has much wider petals and which is a softer pink, but I have to say that I like this one much better! Some over at Maui Plumeria Gardens (my other plumeria hang out) say that it may be called Hawaiian Pink Spider, but I can't find any reference to that name to verify it. So it will have to remain unnamed, but I love it! It does appear to be very similar to the picture that Exotic Plumeria has of their Kona Hybrid, and it is possible that Darin got his plant from them, but their Kona Hybrid is not the same as the registered cultivar.
