P. obtuse var. sericifolia

Native to the Hispaniola, Cuba and the Yucatan Peninsula. The branches and stems are thick and fleshy. They are upright forming a vase or umbrella-shaped tree and tend to be weak and break in high winds. The semi-evergreen leaves are elliptical to lanceshaped, leathery, and arranged spirally around the stems at the ends of the branches, smooth and the smallest of the Plumeria species. There is a noticeable pubescence or fuzziness on the back of the leaves and flower stalks. The white, fragrant flowers with yellow eyes are funnel-shaped ending in petal-like lobes which usually overlap to the left. Slow grower.
