Photo of Yellow Plumeria ID Needed!

Hello All,

I am a newbie on the forum here, but was hoping that some one could help me identify one of my Plumerias. I bought it as a 'Yellow' Plumeria. They did not know the name. I now have 6 of these plants that are all blooming in pots along with the two in my yard.

The flowers are between 2½ to 3 inches wide - closer to 2½". They have very lite pink vines on the back side/edges; the buds are pink until they open. And smell almost like a Gardenia (at least to my nose). :o)

I have looked online for the name of these. Caledine is too much yellow, Nebuls Gold has a little too much white on the edges. I thought maybe Mellow Yellow, but I'm not sure. The shade of yellow is a bit different and the buds on it are yellow/white. Aztec Gold fits in color and shape of flower leaves are very close, buds the same color, but the flowers are bigger than mine and though I tried, I don't really think mine smell like peaches.

What do you wonderful grower's think?

Thanks, BJ
