The Hawaiian Lei Flower tree is a tropical and exotic flowering tree. The Hawaiians use the exotic Plumeria flower to make their Leis with. They prefer the Plumeria flower over all other flowers because of their intoxicating scent and their superior holding quality once picked. With over 200 different colors and fragrances the Hawaiians have a lot of wonderful flowers to choose from. We at Plumerias Plus feel honored to be able to make them available to you, and lucky to spend our days working with these incredible trees.
For such wonderful trees they are remarkably easy to care for and very low maintenance. First, THEY ABSOLUTELY LOVE THE SUN . The more sun light you give your Plumeria the more blooms your Plumeria will give you. Second, they only require WATER ONCE A WEEK during the spring, summer and fall and less than that during the winter months. Third, the Plumeria will release a white sticky residue if a leaf or branch is damaged so it has almost NO PEST that will attack them. And finally they are also VERY DISEASE RESISTANT with the exception of a common fungus known as rust (Coleosporium Domingense). Rust will cling to the bottom of the plumeria leaf. Rust usually occurs in the late fall when the Plumeria is going dormant for the winter and is dropping its leaves. NO LEAVES means NO RUST so NO WORRIES.
With a little care, and lots of sun you will see why the Hawaiians treasure these trees so much. Once you have experienced all their exotic scents and their wonderful and numerous color combinations it will not take long before you too are Hooked.
