Today I had the most striking bloom on a seedling I have been calling "Riptide" I hope it is maturing to have more blooms like this!

Chris, what a distinctive bloom that Riptide is--looks like a winner.
Darren, I love the colors on your Tahitians. Nice inflorescence on your Celadine. It's the classic plumeria that you see in leis and should have a strong scent. I'll take some plumeria shots for you tomorrow.
A few first time blooms today with pictures of each in sun and shade. African Princess, Inner Compass, and Grand Fiesta.

Another first bloom on Vin Electrique. This one a lot smaller at 5-6" and slightly reflexed. Pictured in sun and shade.
Fourth is Vin Beaujolais.
Fifth is for Darren and David--Plumeria Sondra B.--white suffused with pink and a small dark gold/yellow center. Also very fragrant.

Love those plumeria, Erny. I look forward to seeing more of the multiple varieties grafted on one tree.
Riptide is looking good, Chris.
Very fine photos from everyone!

Below is a seedling that continues to beguile with great colors, 6 inch bloom size.

Wow fantastic bloom shots everyone! And Charlie that is a very interesting seedling bloom...those purple rays with the grey color zone is really something...
I apologize up front for the boatload of pics I'm about to post. Haven't been home long enough this weekend to keep up and with the hot weather lots of blooms...
First bloom of Venetian Brick this season, amazing after the plant was completely dead looking a couple of months ago after replanting...
