Plumeria Frangipani

Plumeria is the classic Hawaiian leis tree. Its flowers are the ones used to form the colorful, tropical flower necklaces (lei) every tourist to our 50th state wears during at least one beach party
Native to Tropical America, from southern Mexico, northern South America and the West Indies, Plumeria is rated a small tree, to about 15-18 feet and is seen in a variety of solid colors. We have seen some Plumeria trees grow much larger
The flowers are about 2 inches long, arranged in 5 petals, are waxy and fragrant. It blooms in spring and through all the summer months
The tree itself is multi-branched and holds thick foliage. The young tree has green wood on the trunk and branches which become more gray as it matures.  Seeds look like this...

Plumeria is related to Oleander, Periwinkle and Allamanda
Plumeria has many common names throughout the tropical world including:

• Dead Man's Finger (Australia)
• Jasmine de Cayenne (Brazil)
• Pagoda Tree or Temple Tree (India)
• Egg Flower (southern China)
• Amapola (Venezuela)

Plumeria-Frangipani is deciduous losing all its leaves in winter. It can look awful without its leaves. Here a staghorn fern is growing in this frangipani
Folks who feel their Plumeria requires pruning should wait until the dormant period is well along then cut for shape
Many who grow Plumeria as a houseplant get very upset in the fall and winter months as the leaves start to look sick and fall off one by one. It's natural.  Water should be at absolute minimum during all dormant months
This tree prefers full sun or shifting shade and hot weather during blooming months. Not too fussy for soil conditions, Plumeria can grow fairly close to the beach, but without full wind. Enriched soil is preferred and good drainage should be provided
The classic Plumeria is the rubra. Rubra can be found with flowers in various tones of red. Other available varieties include:

• Plumeria alba (white)
• Plumeria obtusa (white with yellow center)
• Plumeria obtusa 'Singapore'
• Plumeria 'Nosegay Frangipani'
• Plumeria rubra 'Tricolor'

Many hard-to-find varieties are shown at the Virtual International Plumeria Society
The hot new Plumeria in South Florida is the Plumeria pudica.  Plumeria pudica blooms as many as 10 months a year and has only partial leaf drop during winter.  Foliage is unique as well

New are the dwarf Plumerias. The best one we have seen was planted in a 18-inch terra cotta bowl set on a pedestal. Because of the plant's full leaf habit and many stems, it looked somewhat like a bonsai plant. In the spring and summer, it blooms like the standard Plumeria. With blooms at eye level, the dwarf was a real show stopper

Growing Guides > Frangipani

 

Growing Tropical Frangipani is a gardeners delight as they fill the garden with fragrance and are a beautiful sight.

Frangipani bring with them images of a tropical island, long, warm summers and flowers in your hair. With a little effort these can be grown at your place too. Their waxy scented flowers bring an evening tropical fragrance to the garden and out door living areas.

Frangipani are a woody deciduous tree needing careful attention when growing. The cream and white flowering are the most scented, and hardy for frost free areas. Best suited for north facing walls, deck areas and poolside accompaniment. Pot culture has the added advantage of manipulating the plant to its best environment.

General care...

Water requirements are critical, and is the secret to growing a good Frangipani, always dry off Frangipani when they become deciduous in the autumn, a little water during the winter months 1- 2 times a month, this will keep the plant satiated.
During the growing season plants like even, regular moisture, commence watering in spring when new leaves start to emerge.Frangipani does not like frost so move it to a well ventillated and prtected area over winter or into a glasshouse or sunny airy room.
Large specimens can be planted out side in frost free locations, with particular attention to good sharp drainage for the root system to establish.
Many colours are offered for sale conditional on imports the hardiest being the cream or yellow selection.

General Care when buying a new Frangipani: As the roots of your new frangipani are fragile, do not repot until next spring/summer. It is advisable to plant small specimens in pots so they can be easily shifted. However, once a plant gets large it can be planted in the ground provided the area is frost free, sheltered, and very well drained in winter.

Feeding...

Fertiliser requirements are essential for healthy growth and flowering. Recommended slow release brands such as Osmocote with a high potash give good results, applications 2-3 times during the growing season.

Guarding against pests and diseases...

Pests and diseases affecting Plumeria are mites and scale insects; these are controlled with readily available insecticides from garden centres. A quick check control for mites is to strip and burn infected leaves; the plant will grow new foliage, also placing the plant outside in summer months with good air movement is an ideal management practice.

Frangipani 72

Frangipanis also known by their botanic name Plumeria . It has romantic fragrance and a choice of beautiful warm tropical colours. For centuries frangipani has been one of the great plants for human adornment. The early uses of frangipani have been recorded by the ancient Aztecs.
It is a deciduous shrubs and trees, native to Mexico and Central America and Venezuela, it produces flowers ranging from yellow to pink. In several Pacific islands, Frangipanis are used for making leis. Frangipani has spread to all tropical areas of the world.

Frangipani was the name of an Italian perfume used to scent gloves in the 16th century and named after its creator, Marquis Frangipani. When the frangipani flower was discovered, its natural perfume reminded people of the scented gloves and so the flower was called Frangipani. The genus name, Plumeria commemorates Charles Plumier, a 17th century French botanist.

 

 

 

Frangipani flowers are known for their sweet scent.

Frangipani is known by different name in different places. In Mexico, Frangipani is known as "cacalloxochitl" which means "crow flower." It was used for many medicinal purposes such as salves and ointments.
Here are other names for Frangipani in other countries

• Kembang Kamboja - Indonesia
• Temple Tree or Champa - India
• Kalachuchi - Philippines
• Araliya or Pansal Mal - Sri Lanka
• Champa - Laos
• Lantom" or Lilarwadee - Thai

Frangipani is easy to grow from cuttings. It can be pruned and will do well in pots. Frangipanis are a fantastic addition to the garden, have fragrant flowers throughout summer and are best suited to sunny spots in tropical to warm, frost-free coastal areas.
I remember when I was young, most Frangipani are mostly white with a yellow centre, but now there are a range of colour varieties including yellow, apricot, salmon, pink, red and crimson.
Here in Australia, there are a lot of products that are inspired by Frangipani flowers from car stickers to frangipani scented soap , scented candles and incense, Frangipani Body Butter. I think there is a Frangipani craze that is sweeping the country and is continuing to grow.

Frangipanis

Frangipanis (known by their botanic name Plumeria in America) bring a heady, romantic fragrance to the garden, as well as a wide choice of warm, tropical colours.
In Australia, frangipanis are sold by colour, rather than variety, and the further north you go, the wider the colour choice.
Frangipani was the name of an Italian perfume used to scent gloves in the 16th century and named after its creator, the Marquis Frangipani. When the frangipani flower was discovered its natural perfume reminded people of the scented gloves, and so the flower was called frangipani. The genus name, Plumeria, commemorates Charles Plumier, a seventeenth century French botanist.

Plumeria rubra

Native to Central America, Mexico and Venezuela, this deciduous tree grows from 5-8m tall (15-24'). The leaves are dark green and shiny, and have a prominent midrib. Like all plumeria, the stems and leaves contain a white, milky sap. There are at least four distinct forms of this species: acutifolia - white flowers with yellow centres lutea - yellow flowers sometimes flushed pink rubra - deep pink flowers with yellow centres tricolor - white flowers with yellow centres and a red or pink tips
Many of the forms of Plumeria rubra are grown in Australian gardens but the most commonly seen is Plumeria rubra f. acutifolia. Named cultivars are less readily available. Frangipanis will grow and flower well as far south as Sydney and Perth, particularly in coastal gardens. In colder or inland areas grow them against a warm masonry wall, in a north facing position and protect them from frost.

Frangipani rust

There is a new disease attacking frangipanis in Australia called frangipani or plumeria rust (Coleosporium domingense syn C. plumeriae). It is most noticeable in late summer and early autumn. Small yellow pustules appear on the underside of leaves. They rupture and spread spores which pass the disease to other plants nearby. The upper sides of the leaves are brown and discoloured. Severe infections may cause the leaves to drop prematurely.
To control frangipani rust try using a fungicide (such as Mancozeb) in the warmer months to slow the development of the disease. Disposing of all fallen leaves in winter and spraying the tree and the area under the tree with a fungicide may slow the reappearance of frangipani rust next season.

Availability and cost

As frangipanis are sold by flower colour rather than by variety,  it’s best to buy a plant in flower. They are available from nurseries in NSW and QLD as well as selected nurseries in NT and WA. Expect to pay around $13 for 140mm (6”) pots.

Yates Mancozeb Plus costs about $14 and is available from nurseries and garden centres.

Welcome to Bali Plumeria by Bali Frangipani

Plumeria

Plumeria or frangipani is named after Charles Plumier, a seventeenth-century French botanist who described several tropical species. The genus contains 8 species of mainly deciduous shrubs and trees, originally from Central America, known for their strongly fragrant flowers. Plumeria is common names: plumeria, frangipani, melia (Hawaiian), temple tree, and many named cultivars , it is grown as an ornamental and is not found in the wild. It has wide spread use in tropical landscapes around the world. Plumeria or frangipani is generally a small tree growing to about 30 ft high. The species and hybrids vary somewhat in tree size, compactness, and branching character, leaf and flower size and color.

Planting or Rooting Plumeria Cuttings

Plumeria or frangipani are easy to root from cuttings and will grow with a minimum of care. Once the cutting is removed from the donor plant, remove all but the apical leaves if any, to reduce moisture loss. Set the cutting aside in a warm and dry location to allow the cut surface to dry and seal itself for three days at least (one week is better). It has been found that if the cutting is placed directly in dry sand. When you are ready to plant the cutting, dip the cut end in the root hormone with fungicide. Plant it shallow in sand or perlite (potting soil, etc.) excellent drainage is necessary. Place the newly planted cutting in strong or full sunlight. Watch for new leaf growth as your sign that roots have formed (usually 6-8 weeks). Plumeria or frangipani can be easily grown in a container and starts blooming usually on the first year after rooting.
