Pretty!
Is the light pink and yellow flower plumeria?

Relle, your garden is gorgeous! I love the frangipanis!

 

[Fullamoon]

soapbuddy I was thinking the same thing! I don't know exactly what a plumeria looks like, but I have a BB mold called "Plumeria" and it looks just like that!

Yep, Irena, thats it - we call them frangipanis. It's my favourite flower, I like the white /yellow one for the scent as it seems to be stronger.
The garden is looking a bit sad at the moment as we are in winter :cry: .

Your garden looks magickal Relle!

I used to live in Fiji and had an amazing garden of frangipani and hibiscus. Our staff used to wear them in their hair ... beautiful!

Pretty flowers Relle.
There's something about frangipanis thats just special isn't there. & the smell..... amazing.

Cinta, Kaz and Nat, you can't beat the smell of Frangis, I wish Hibiscus would last when you put them in a float bowl.

Beautiful! I am notorious for having a black thumb, but I tried again to grow flowers this year and actually succeeded!

I go into my own garden and relax every chance I get. LOVE the hibiscus! When I was little in South Florida our neighbor always had hibiscus. I used to go steal them and wear them behind my ear.

I think its nice to be able to get into a garden, makes you feel good, glad you had success with your flowers this year. I don't actually have a green thumb myself, and I'm a florist, things usually have to look after themselves.
Love all the colours you can get in hibiscus, I'd love to live in the tropics and have them year round.

So very lovely! You are a talented gardener! Do you ever use the dried flower petals in your soaps?
