Description
An improved version of the popular California Sunset. Seedling of California Sunset, better in terms of coloring, branching, and compactness. Individual blooms appear different, as if several other varieties were grafted onto the plant. Most dense, semi-compact growth habit of any JJ plumeria. Heavy bloomer with brilliant pink, orange, and yellow flowers highlighted by hot pink feathered edges. Individual blooms vary due to temperature variations. Heavy bloomer and brancher with strong sweet scent like a mix of Penang Peach and Desert Sunrise. This second-generation California Sunset seedling has the most dense, semi-compact growth habit. Also noted is Cuatro, a white cultivar with pink edges and yellow heart, an oddity with four petals.
