Plumeria early blooms

Featured Replies

Due to our unusually warm Arizona winter, my plumeria trees are already blooming. 🤯 Unfortunately, it seems to have had the opposite effect on our stone fruits which all appear to be giving up flowering entirely for this year...🤷‍♂️

Had to follow up with some local shots after this cold winter we have experienced. IMG_2240.thumb.jpeg.f956ddda83ca9df0853299b06280acc5.jpeg

That shot of the Plumeria against that stately Royal Palm is exquisite! You guys had a warm winter and we had a cold one! Here is one that caught my eye today:IMG_2291.thumb.jpeg.3a8b4c8f6603c24176baac0c2b1a7de5.jpeg

A few shots from today. One mystery plant. When do you think we see the first blush of the Royal Poinciana this year?IMG_2389.thumb.jpeg.be5cee31dfe1ba00c24dcdeb6e9a3c1b.jpeg

Nice deep yellow color. I bet they smell fantastic!

Royal Poinciana always bloom in May in the Arizona desert. With our extremely warm winter, the trees never went dormant and still hold most of last years leaves. Will be interesting to see if they skip blooming this year like all my stone fruits...

We had a cold February and most have lost their leaves. I have seen late April but this year may be late. Will be interesting!

They are as tough as nails, my ones are finished flowering now with just the odd flower. Check out the one growing in a crack in the sandstone in the pic on a rock shelf.

And here’s another good plumeria cerise two var. A beautiful flower!
