    This outstanding variety is now PSA registered Plumeria No.403.
    The positive attributes of this particular Cultivar should make it a favorite: it is long blooming, a sturdy grower and appears virtually impervious to the rust fungus. It tends to keep its leaves through most of the winter months in our area, only shedding them just prior to making a new set.
    It is very generous with its rainbow-colored blooms.
