  They smell wonderful. I love the scent of them in the leis on Kamehameha Day.

Some of my Frangipannis are just opening and others have been for a while now and starting to drop. A great macro Graham 🙂

  I’m sure they’re at different stages at other places on the island. Elevation and rainfall makes a world of difference.

Beautiful! I always thought it was a bit different to see the blooms on the naked branches.

  It is strange to see the flowers first, but I love how it makes it easy to see the flowering process.
