This plumie does have a really good smell, I will tell you that much. If you want my 2 cents....and I am not just talking about plumeria's here...I give it a few more years and naming plants in general will be so screwed up. To many people cross breeding, sports, and NOW 'The Virus'. People trading and selling plants, just giving them any ol'name. Not taking the time to register them, and so forth. The fact that plumeria's can be purchased on Ebay from Tailand with this virus, for BIG money. At first they (and still) not telling the people about this 'virus' and how it spreads to other plumies and ultimatly 'fades' etc., You think Ebay would ban that some how. I will be honest, I fell for 'the virus' such pretty flowers! But until I did research, I found out they are actually making big money off of an infected plant. Now I don't know if it's against the law to sell these plumies, but I'm sure you plumie experts know more about it. Have not had the time to search the forums myself.
Back to this plumeria here, I think I have a 'RED ROSE/ROSE RED' from PlumeriaGallery and I think it's budding now, it appears to be a tad smaller bloom, then this here 'Miami Rose', guess we will have to wait and see.
