I would say they are the same plants. But Hetty would know. She's the plumeria expert I trust.

It is blooming season in your area now. Soon you may have blooms too.

My plumerias have been neglected all year, this is the first year that I did not fertilize and they are blooming. I have more buds from Divine, Star White, Puu Kahea, Dwarf Pink Singapore...can't wait for my garden to be full of blooms.

Beautiful!! That may be what we thought this one is, Guadalupe Fernandez. It has a hint of cinnamon in the scent. Every morning I can smell the plumeria blooms coming in the screen from the roof garden.

The scent is pretty strong and mostly a sweet, perfume type scent but I smell just a hint of cinnamon in it and that makes the scent different from the purely sweet, perfume smell of others.

Describing smells is harder than describing wine. argh!
