Frangipani - flower opened today
 
Hi guys, bought this plant last year. It has flowered quite a bit but this is the first close to perfect flower I have managed to get. The aroma is not surpassed by anything else I've ever come across, the second photo is of some unflowered seedlings I've been growing for two years. I grow these outside in really cold to hot weather but I make sure they are protected from frost and do not get wet in winter.

And the seedlings, I have lost the name tags but they should be splashes of pink and orange when they flower - maybe next year:

They certainly get very large, I guess it will outgrow the pot eventually and I will have to find a good place in the ground.

Wow, that flower is really cool. Not seen one like it before, the way the petals curl right in to the center.
