And the winner is...

Earlier this summer, I took it upon myself to decide, once and for all, my absolute top favourite frangipani Plumeria.


There were so many contenders.


I thought I would approach it scientifically so I took photos of lots of favourites I saw locally to help me decide.














This vibrant pink was a serious contender


But then so was this pastel beauty.











Gorgeous, with agapanthus and dietes.



This is one of mine. 

In the end I decided it was a dead heat: I love them all! How about you?

  3. WOW! I’ve never seen so many different Plumeria. Here in Houston, I mostly see the white flowering varieties. Your photos are truly gorgeous. Thanks so much for sharing!

  4. They're gorgeous! I don't think I could decide on just one, either.

  5. Hi there,
    Just came across your blog. Your pics are gorgeous. I have to admit that I could not pick a favorite flower, they are all so beautiful. Looking forward to seeing more. Greetings from the US...Heidi...Have a great week ahead.

  6. It's so pretty! I can't decide !
    Is that all from your garden?

  7. I love the white ones too, Bernie. Sadly, Malar, they are not all from my garden. I have 5 white, 1 pink that hasn't flowered yet - I think it's really pale like the second one (one of my brother's)- and the last one, 'Tricolour'. I had the deep pink at my last house, but I seriously can't fit anymore here. They grow very big eventually. My brother's mother in law lived on a farm outside Lismore NSW and planted about 15, all different colours, along her front fence. That would be fun! Tony tells me he picked her 5 best for cuttings.
