We are told that this attractive plant hails from Kenya, East Africa and is a relative of the "Frangipani Tree" (Plumeria Rubra). It has thick fleshy, twisting branches with dark glossy green leaves. In the dry season most of the leaves drop off, leaving mainly the flowers to show their natural beauty. The flowers are beautiful, they have a delicate pink colour with bright crimson outer edges.
This flower is indeed a tropical beauty ... and will be a joy forever!
