If you look closely at No. 13, you can see that two inflorescences are developing instead of one. All of the flowers have developed on one side of the tree but I plan to fertilize this weekend so maybe I'll get flowers on the right side also.

Great pictures, Delecie! Candy Stripe is a very good grower so I've heard. I just got one from Maui Plumeria Gardens not too long ago. I love the colors! You have a lovely tree:-)

Thank you Clare. Candy Stripe is a great grower. I bought mine three years ago in a three gallon pot. The colors are great and it smells good too, although I'm not good at describing scents. This is today's photograph:

Those colors just jump out at you. That is a great tree and very big for only being three years old.
