    Plumeria! One of my favorites. Where are you? Hawaii?

      No, not Hawaii – but close to the equator! 🙂

    The botanical name is Plumeria, common name is Frangipani. They grow on a trees and are originally from tropical areas. Don’t they smell devine?
    They will grow in southern California (where I live) and I’ve always dreamed of getting one.

      Thank you! I was in a tropical area when I snapped the shot, so I am guessing you are correct! 🙂

          Hehehe glad I helped! It’s very common in tropical areas… It’s everywhere in Singapore… I can see it from my room, the government plant quite a bit of them everywhere here! All the colours!

    Oh, I wish I knew, 400, because they are really gorgeous…kind of waxy-looking, and the colors are quite wonderful! Nature at its best…soothing and surprising!

    I’m pretty sure that’s a plumeria. They smell amazing – I ran across them in Hawaii.

    I don’t know where you vacationed so – I could only do so much research. You can go to: http://www.ask.com/web?q=how+to+identify+Flowering+Shrub&qsrc=19&o=11123&l=dir&ni=&pstart=
    See if you can nail it down! good luck.
