These I picked up last year from a friend.. In a year the stems have fattened up nicely. I would say they are 2 yrs old now.. I hope they bloom next year so I have some more color.. I have another in w/ the pineapple pups that has more red on the leaves.. :^)

When on Oahu, Hawaii, forum members shouldn't miss any of the botanical gardens run by the City & County of Honolulu. Koko Crater Garden has a massive collection of plumeria, many, many varieties that I've never seen elsewhere. Another garden everyone should check out is Lyon Arboretum, in Manoa Valley. All of these gardens have web pages with phone numbers and maybe maps to them. Not sure about the latter. Caveat: these gardens don't have many bananas, but other rare tropicals, yes. And there are two xeric gardens, of which Koko Crater is one. Visiting all the gardens will take 2 or 3 days, at least.

Still in recovery for 4 out of 5.. I'd say, but making headway.. :^)
