Very nice. I guess you feel liike a proud father. Might I also mention the view... very nice too. LOL If you can grow one there, I guess they can be grown just about anywhere. I am surprised to notice your growing zone is the same as mine in West Texas.

Hey Gordon!
I live about 20 minutes from the Philadelphia Flower Show.
Please give me a holler next time, Id love to meet and shake your hand sir!
Nice blossom!
I also have some from them.
Amazing how little anyone there knew about plumeria.
Micah and I were asking questions and they knew nothing.
We found ourselves surrounded by attendees and answering tons of questions.
We actually discussed opening a booth lol!!
My health made that prohibitive. :^(
Oh well!!
Gordon, I have always been fascinated by those rooftop gardens. Those pics are spectacular!
Gorgeous color; congratulations.
Wow that plumie is like 500 feet high what do you feed it?
:)
Nice work and hats off to you northern folks for your dedication..
I agree with everyone's comments here, Gordon. Your pictures are wonderful, and that backdrop is awesome. Yes, hats off to you:-) Can't wait to see those Singapore seedlings in flower.
LhasaLover.. Well it varries in what zone they say Iam in ...I did a zip code zone check..and they had me as a 6..growingup in the wind andcold... with mydirt in theair..and not warmed by theground... it mightbeaslow as a 4... and on the hot roof.. where when it is 85*F the roof is at 145... so I figure I'm a zone 4-14... here...asmy microclime zone.. so.. plumerias loving as much heat as possible love it here... no problem..

Hi Gordon! You are too kind:-)
Thanks for the compliments, and I'm so glad that your epi's are doing great! My Epi oxy is covered in buds again and promises a good show soon. I will post pictures when it blooms again for sure.
Yes, I am thrilled to have such a lovely flower named after me. Kukiat is so kind to do this for me.
Your seedlings are doing great too! Here is a recent picture below.
I don't know what plumie that is, but it's a beauty. Treasure Isle maybe? My T.I. is blooming now so I've got that one on the brain.
Very pretty, Gordon! Congratulations! She resembles 'Loretta' a bit.
Nice seedling Gordon!!
Congratulations!
