I'm not at all familiar with tropical plants, but I know a beauty when I see one.

If I am not mistaken that is not a Plumeria but a Desert Rose. You might want to post this on Caudiciforms.

I agree, it is beautiful, but it's an Adenium.

LOL, Told you I don't know anything about Tropicals!!!

Fountain, FL(Zone 8a)

WOW
I see you're in Norristown...I grew up in Roxborough. Where was the picture taken?

Norristown, PA(Zone 6b)

At Ott's Exotic Plants in Schwenksville. They had a lot of Plumeria. This one was near them and I assumed it was one. I don't recall whether those plants off to the right were Plumerias or not.

San Leandro, CA(Zone 9b)

WOW spectacular! Was it for sale?

Norristown, PA(Zone 6b)

Kell, Dummy me forgot to look. I went there in search of a yellow Clivia.

San Leandro, CA(Zone 9b)

Well if it was for sale, I bet it was out my price range. Just gorgeous!

Norristown, PA(Zone 6b)

I plan to go back next weekend and photo some of his hugh exotics. I'll try to find out. I did get my Clivia.

San Leandro, CA(Zone 9b)

RRM, The big one is 15 years old.

Here's something else they had that I've never seen before. A blooming Jade Plant.

Magnificent... Don't you love going to these places and wish you had such a
tropical paradise?? 15 is a good age for a plant that had such beautiful roots.
thanks, The Jade is wonderful too, isn't it?

Norristown, PA(Zone 6b)

Do they often bloom and I've just always missed it?

Barnesville (Charle, GA(Zone 8b)

I think mostly when they get some age on them, That certainly looks like it does by the thickness of the trunk, I am
guessing. You were probably just at the right time too. that helps. It is like a Sanseverious (I hope I spelled that right) Snake plant. They have a pretty bloom on them but we just don't get to see them very often. I love plants. They teach us so many things.
