thanks for your reply....
now that i have two plumerias one-yellow-white the second red................does that mean there is polonation happening between them and i can dry the flowers and expect for new colors?
In order for you to have new colors your plumeria needs to produce seedpods. I am not exactly sure how my plumerias are getting seedpods but I think I have a lot of beneficial insects that cross polinated them. The flowers alone do not have seeds on their own.
The seedpods will look like this:
Once you see a seedpod like this, you have to wait for it to ripen (8 mos to more than a year depending on the variety).
The seeds will look like this. Some would have less seeds. If you buy seeds. This is what the seeds will look like:
The seeds will not come true to the parent and so that's how you create new colors.
