The blooms on this Plumeria variety have an intense scent of spice, nutmeg and clove!

[ Plumeria (Plumeria rubra 'Beach Blush') | Posted on May 22, 2013 ]

[ Euphorbia (Euphorbia pachypodioides) | Posted on May 5, 2013 ]

It is clear to see why this plant got the species name 'pachypodioides' since it resembles the genus Pachypodium in its plump shape.

This is also known as 'Courtade Gold'

[ Plumeria (Plumeria rubra 'Intense Rainbow') | Posted on April 28, 2013 ]

Intense Rainbow flowers keep a long time and are therefore one of the premier choices for lei-making.
This is a compact growing tree.

This plant, which was formerly known as Opuntia corallicola, is one of the most critically endangered plants in the United States, with wild populations only existing in the Florida Keys in very small numbers. It is currently successfully growing at Naples Botanical Garden.

[ Lilac Tree (Lonchocarpus violaceus) | Posted on October 21, 2012 ]

This fast growing tropical tree is originally from Trinidad in the West Indies.

[ Crinum Lily (Crinum 'Menehune') | Posted on October 16, 2012 ]

This is an attractive dwarf form of Crinum.

[ Mussaenda 'Marmalade' | Posted on October 7, 2012 ]

Mussaenda 'Marmelade' is a new cultivar; it is reported to be a cross of Mussaenda philippica ‘Dona Luz’ and Mussaenda luteola.

[ Elephant Bush (Portulacaria afra 'Variegata') | Posted on September 15, 2012 ]

I find this one slower growing and more pendulous than the non-variegated form.

[ Royal Poinciana (Delonix regia) | Posted on September 7, 2012 ]

The seedpods, which form very soon after the flowering cycle and grow large very quickly, remain on the tree throughout the winter months. The hard dry seedpods are then shed by the tree during the first of the summer storms, allowing the seeds to be dispersed in the rainy season, which aids in quick germination. I have picked probably 200 small seedlings from under my tree this year so far (posted in September 2012)

[ Joy Perfume Tree (Magnolia champaca) | Posted on August 30, 2012 ]

The flowers of this tree provide the essence of 'Joy' perfume.
