Those of you who have known me for a while know that I used to scoff at Plumeria Pudica as not a 'real' plumeria. I mean, white, with no fragrance??

But lately I have found it a wonderful landscape plant, complementing the other *real* plumeria perfectly. It provides greenery in the winter, it is not susceptible to rust (a big bonus here in SW Florida) and the bushy growth habit makes it ideal for hedges or underplanting the larger trees. I've incorporated quite a number of plants into my yard now.

How do you find P. Pudica in your growth zone?
