These are remnants of some Brad's Whites.

They seem indestructible.

They get so big that they block the view. And they are fragile in big winds. But they grow like crazy. I still have several trees -- as large -- still bare -- just starting to show inflo's. I got the first piece as an 18 inch cutting.

This is what the inflo looks like (the White one) http://davesgarden.com/community/forums/fp.php?pid=3902366

From an old thread:

I still have a great amount of this year's seeds -- if you'd like some.

Be well

looks like they would make good root stock. i'll try some seeds. maybe do a gang planting and then pull them out as needed. please keep me posted when you get cutting available. thanks!

I had the same experience with a Singapore White. It got very badly damaged and I had to cut it off basically at ground level, but it came back like gangbusters!

It is amazing how some things cling to life. And how they live to reproduce. And the symbiotic relationship between flora and fauna with respect to pollenizing .

It's a wonderful world we live in. It seems impossible that it could of all happened by accident. Someone had to have planned it.

This is pretty new to me. Last year I found out that the leaves yellowing was too much rain. So I put it up on the porch. Then I found out that little boys get rough and knock it off of porches. So now I have two. I have this weird looking bunch of stuff growing on it and found out it's going to bloom. And my camera's not working. Should it be watered while flowering?

Yes.

It looks like my Plumerias got frozen - I don't think they are going to leaf out.

This is the same cluster -- four months later.

See why I call them "trees" and why I call them "prolific."

LOL, Brad! Yeah, I work at home on the computer mostly! I sneak in a comment or two between writing. Dave's is a pleasant distraction that I shouldn't indulge in too frequently, or it will take longer for me to complete my jobs! When I get to chat with you, it is a welcomed distraction;-)

It has been a pleasure.

Be well
