Plumeria rubra CALCUTTA STAR
[X*Kalakaua Star, Kalakua Star, 4424]
[ Apocynaceae ]
Considered to be one of the most fragrant of all plumeria. Very strong spicy floral scent. Bright pink star 3?" with a red orange center that forms a beautiful star. Slow grower and heavy bloomer from India. Reacts very strongly to heat. It can be very pale in the early season. When it first blooms, very pretty, but it seems to fade really quickly. Medium tree.
