Moir Pink 'Moir'

is a Hawaiian name adapted from French, pronounced Moyer. Moderate pink and white with an orange center. The rest is white overlaid with grainy Red-Purple increasing in density to a stripe on the right. The petals are elliptical with a somewhat pointed tip. Deep red purple margin around the tip and distinctive white venation in the center. A red-purple band is on the back of each petal. The scent is mild floral. Soft pink hues, large bloom heads, rapid growth and a pleasing tropical scent. Pink with small brilliant yellow center, elliptical with pointed tip, deep pink band on the back, 3.25", mild lemon fragrant. Moderate pink and white with an orange and yellow center. The petals are elliptical with a somewhat pointed tip, mild floral. Colors get intense during a warm weather, nice bundle flowers. Maygood Moir and his wife, a legendary flower arranger, grew their namesake next to their iron gate to their home. It was then that I was made aware that sometimes the humidity in their area, near the Pali Lookout, could drop to single digits causing sunburn on their tropicals. They were very nice folks and shared their plant experiences without hesitation. The plumeria is named Moir, without the "pink."
