Hi, Kim! I'm glad you caught our post!:) Were you aware, that just a few miles from you in Leander, Texas, that there was the largest retailer/wholesaler of plumerias in Texas? They were called "The Plumeria People" and literally had hundreds of plumies for sell!!! A gentleman by the name of Milton L. Pierson bought them out and moved the operations to Houston. Unfortunately, there's no nursery to visit only an online mail order service.:(
I love most all plants but plumerias hold a special place in my heart. I had a friend who passed on give me a large plumeria. It was my first plumeria and I had no idea how to care for it. That was 13 yrs. ago and 46 plumerias later!
My philosophy is one is NEVER ENOUGH!!!!:)
Here's a picture of my favorite plumeria "Kimo".
