I've only ever read about Frangipani, never actually seen it. I believe it has a wonderful fragrance. Does this grow outside in your garden?

H Henry. Thanks for your comments. Frangipani's are my absolute favourite. Both the frangipani and the hibiscus grow very merrily in the backyard of a house we rented in Caloundra, QLD. And yes the frangrance from the frangipani is divine!

I think that perfumerers (?) use Frangipani as one of the 'notes' in perfumes! I shall be reading descriptions of perfumes from now on to see if there's any in them! By the way, most members call me 'Spritz' for short, and I do prefer that because Henry is our Labrador!!! :-D P.S. I gather that QLD is Queensland, is that right?

Frangipani is my all time favourite plant and I have loved it for about 30 years now. I grow lots of exotics and my second favourite is the Joshua tree of which I have two.
