Pops Red

#167 4-4.5” rich red with white spotted tip, deep coloration, and big clusters. Keeping quality is top notch, excellent for lei making. Fragrance is spicy sweet scent. Texture is thick and velvety. Tree gets large with age and grows fast. Rose red 3 1/2 to 4", petal narrow, elliptical, round tip, slightly overlapped, texture, flowering habit and keeping quality excellent, fragrance sweet and mild. Compact growth habit. Velvety red with white spots on the tips, more noticeable after a day or two. Mine prefers the shade. In hottest sun, blooms will fall off prematurely. Once in the shade they open better. 3” Bright red with a small white spot like a watermark on the tip of each petal. Medium-short tree. Best true red with 3.5", slightly black grainy on the petals, dark red bands on the back, sweet spicy fragrant. Slow to bloom. My Pops' blooms better in partial shade. Pop's Red was discovered on Oahu Island (or Big Island?) in the mid 1990s while a preacher was cutting up and moving his plumeria tree in his front yard. Noticing that it was spectacular, asked what do you call it? After further prodding, he said it was called Pop's, a nickname given to him while he served on City Council in Oahu. The little white tips only show after a day or so and only when it gets hot. 4-4.5” rich red with white spotted tips. Very flashy deep coloration and big cluster of blossoms. Fragrance is awesome with its spicy sweet scent. Texture is thick and velvety. Beautiful petals with white tip developing as the flowers age and light but very floral scent. Flower keeps fairly well. Faded blooms look a weird purplish color. Generous bloomer and funky blooms with a small white tip. Prominent leaf veins. No Fragrance and white tips. Weak flowers that don't last once picked. Thinner branching but beautiful. Gets white fuzz on the leaf edges. Sets seed.
