Description
Gypsy Rose is a 3-inch pastel pink flower with edges outlined in deeper pink and a sweet frangipani fragrance. The bloom is mostly white with a small yellow center that is barely visible when the petals do not open fully; some blooms remain partially open rather than reflexed, giving a distinctive vortex-like shape. The scent is not very strong. It is similar to Pink Essence and Haiku Sunrise MPG. It is not a true all-white plumeria, since a yellow throat appears when the flower opens fully.
