Hi, I'm Alexandra, and until about half a year ago I had not even known that such a plant exists. Moreover, I've lived in Miami for the last 6 years (minus the last 3.5 months and counting, since I moved to El Paso, TX) and still didn't know about them! (NOOOOOOOOOO! not possible!)
I have to thank Dete and Mickey (AZ) for luring me. Also for giving me a bit of confidence that they might grow in this desert climate.
I have decided to start from seed, many reasons behind this, but the strongest being I am a seed nut, I love to see those little things unfurling and growing every day under your eyes. I have procured my seed from a wonderful guy, Bruce, from FCN seeds.

I spent part of my past days lurking here in search for information, which I found plenty! Also noticed that people here are quite friendly, helping each other and sharing their experience with ease and grace. Not to talk about the beautiful pictures!
I have started my first batch yesterday, and megalomaniac visions were feeding my ego, I was seeing myself surrounded by beautiful Plumeria flowers, of course, all unique and highly prised.
Well, today I'm still quite optimistic, but my head deflated a bit though...

Because one never knows what tomorrow may bring, I have decided to introduce myself. I hope you will be here in case I need somebody to hold my hand. And in case I will get the most beautiful, unique and highly prised Plumeria... sorry, head is inflating again!
