ABOUT NOTHING AT ALL REALLY

I was scrolling through iPhoto and came across these two photos of my frangipani enjoying the wonderful rain we had during the week.  Nearly an inch fell and boy, was it welcome.  This is Cotton Candy:


This gives an idea of how large the individual flowers can be.  This is George Brown:


We only have the 8 potted plants but I am hoping to perhaps get another 4 by next season.  We can't plant them as we'd hate to leave them behind should we have to move but being potted plants, my daughter would take them as she is a frangipani fanatic as well.

    I love frangipanis, there are a few blooming around Adelaide still.
    Glad you finally got some rain.

      It is not until one becomes a frangipani addict that all the trees in the neighbourhood are noticed. Our suburbs are quite old and there are some huge trees, some still in full bloom, near us.
      The rain was wonderful but, as with SA, we always want and need more. The weeds emerged the very next day. Can't stop those little blighters!
