I have the same thing happening, although I have only one blooming. So far it is opening one bud at a time. When the flower fades and drops then it takes a fewdays before the next one opens. I love the things but would be a lot happier if it presented me with a bouquet.

What is the definition of loosing them faster? Or what is normal is more like it? I'd like to know since I have 2 finally big enough to bloom and are fixing to. Thanks :^)

Mine are still outside and looking good. We're just now getting some of that cold are to where the lows are in the mid 40's. I've got a plumeria called 'Saigon' that blooming now. It's a really free blooming plant but has no fragrance. I've never seen a plant like it, the leaves are different than what I'm accusted to. I'll have to go on line to see if I can get more information on it. I thought there was only on kind of plumeria.

You have any plumeria you want to sell or trade?
