Growing Plumeria in Coronado Story & Photos by Roberta Lenert

lumeria is the quintessential tropical island plant: viewing their bright flowers and breathing their wonderful fragrance immediately transports me to a Hawaiian island. But you don’t have to be on those tropical islands to own and grow these delightful plants, you can do it here on Coronado Island too! Plumeria may be a perfect edition to your garden, either potted or in the soil. It has beautifully fragrant flowers that provides topical beauty while being drought tolerant and requiring very little watering. It comes in many variations of color, scent and size. For all their variety one thing all plumeria have in common is its unforgettable tropical beauty and smell!
