Plumeria
Tropical fragrant blossom
Plumeria is a tropical flowering plant native to the Americas, prized for its intensely fragrant, waxy blossoms in white, yellow, pink, and red.
The flowers are iconic in Hawaiian leis, though the plant itself isn't native to Hawaii.
Also called frangipani.
The plumeria by the porch perfumed the whole yard.
