Plumeria, a small deciduous tree of the Apocynaceae family, is also known as Burmese Gardenia. Its petals are white and its center is light yellow, which looks like egg white wrapped in egg yolk, hence the name. Every April and May, the dignified and elegant plumeria blooms one after another, with a rich and refreshing fragrance. The five petals are stacked in a circle, which looks like a paper windmill made by children. In fact, in addition to white, plumeria also has red and yellow colors, both of which can be used to extract essence for the manufacture of high-end cosmetics, soaps and food additives. The price is quite high and has great commercial development potential; the flowers can also be dried and used for tea, commonly known as plumeria tea, which has the effect of curing fever and diarrhea, moistening the lungs and detoxifying.

The plumeria tree has a beautiful shape, with many branches and strange shapes. Its leaves are like loquats. After falling in winter, semicircular leaf marks are left on the branches, which look like deer antlers with beautiful spots. It is the first choice of small trees for landscaping, garden decoration, and potted plants in tropical areas. The bark is thin and gray-green, rich in poisonous white juice, which can be used for external application to treat scabies, redness and swelling. The wood is white, light and soft, and can be made into musical instruments, tableware or furniture.

Although the homeland of frangipani is far away in the Americas, from Mexico to Venezuela, it can now be found in tropical and subtropical regions all over the world.

Plumeria is a deciduous shrub of the Apocynaceae family. It is the most beautiful succulent plant that blooms in tropical regions. It can reach a height of 4 to 5 meters when planted in the tropics. It is an important garden plant. In the north, it can only be planted in pots for viewing, usually below 2 meters. Plumeria will shed its leaves in winter when cultivated in a greenhouse, which is a manifestation of its poor cold resistance. However, after the leaves fall, the bare trunks are naturally curved like bonsai, which is also very ornamental.

Plumeria is also called Burmese Gardenia, Egg Yolk Flower, Indian Jasmine, Big Season Flower. In Xishuangbanna, my country and some Southeast Asian countries, Plumeria is widely planted as one of the "Five Trees and Six Flowers" by Buddhist temples, so it is also called "Temple Tree" or "Tower Tree". It has a beautiful and strange tree shape, and the whole stem contains latex.

Plumeria is a strong positive flower. The more sunshine it gets, the more luxuriant it grows, and the more flowers it has and the more fragrant it is. Therefore, it does not need to be shaded in summer. If it is maintained indoors in winter, it will be damaged by frost if the temperature is below 5℃. It is easy to drop leaves and enter a long dormant period when the temperature is below 8℃ or the ventilation is poor. The spring of the following year is the time when plumeria sprouts and grows leaves. Since it is a succulent plant, it should not be watered too much. The principle is not to water it unless it is dry, water it as soon as it is dry, water it thoroughly, and do not allow water to accumulate. Since plumeria likes calcareous soil, pay attention to calcium supplementation when fertilizing. You can add bone meal, or apply organic fertilizers rich in calcium such as eggshells, fish bones, and broken bones.

Plumeria is loved by people in many regions and countries. In Laos, it is designated as the national flower and is highly respected; in the tropical tourist destination of Hawaii, people like to string the plumeria flowers they pick into garlands as ornaments, so plumeria is also a symbol of Hawaiian festivals; in my country, plumeria is not only the city flower of Zhaoqing City, Guangdong Province, but also the best specialty dish for the enthusiastic Dai people in Xishuangbanna to entertain guests.

Plumeria has been in my country for hundreds of years. There is an ancient plumeria tree in Pinghu Street, Shenzhen, which is more than 400 years old. The flowers and bark of plumeria can be used as medicine, which can clear away heat and detoxify, moisten the lungs and relieve cough. In Guangdong, white plumeria are often dried to make herbal tea, which is very popular. At the same time, the flowers can also be used to extract aromatic oils, which are used to make cosmetics and high-end soaps. According to the latest report, the sap of plumeria can treat a skin disease caused by HIV infection or anti-cancer drugs and electrotherapy.
