Anecdotal Notes
with incredible pinkish red streaks and a broad pink band running over a yellow background. Sweet scent with hints of tropical fruits and the typical Moragne growth habit. Streaked pink with burnt-orange veins radiating from the center are 4 to 5” on inflos in the size of a basketball. Mild but sweet and spicy fragrance and a compact growth. Moragne hybrid of Daisy Wilcox and Scott Pratt. Unlike many of the Moragnes, quite compact and tends to spread gently and beautifully outwards as opposed to fast and upwards. Her growth is very, very manageable and the flower heads can be enormous, with large numbers of them open at once during high season. I have often said she is one of the most underrated plumerias available because I am always meeting people who don't have one and never really gave getting one much thought. The 4” blooms have a nice, spicy, somewhat carnation-like scent. Easy to root as cuttings- unlike her more famous pod-sibling Bill Moragne Sr. Those burnt-orange veins in the very center are difficult to fully capture with a camera. Definitely a plumeria for those wanting big flowers, compact growth habit, nice scent, and very pretty colors. Compact growth with elliptical leaves and acute tips. Pod parent: Daisy Wilcox. Pollen parent: Scott Pratt. Huge clusters of blooms..very nice floral scent. Super nice plant, heavy bloomer every year. Prominent clove-spice scent. Very compact and slow grower. Sensitive to soil compaction. Multi pink color with golden orange center, darker pink outer edge top with dark pink band on the back of the petals, long oval petals, rounded tips, moderate overlapping, heavy texture, 4" flower, spicy sweet scent, good texture flowers and bloom in a big bundles. Seldom sets seed. Sets seed. Mary Nicholson profuse blooms for a very long time! The fragrance is a nice floral scent. 3-4" White, Pink Edging, Yellow Center, Very Compact Grower. Most prolific bloomer and brancher I have owned. Best white with purple hues in the edges! Smells incredible, thick petals. Good graft host. Average grower, not a mini or dwarf. Good brancher. Possibly from a Fallbrook plumeria grower called Jim Clark. Named for Jim Clark's sister. Sets seed.
