Well, actually 14 months to a full flower, but the flower pod showed up at one year.

Here are a series of pictures starting with the seed pod in tie wrap so it wouldn’t burst open and let the seeds fly into the wind.
Seeds planted in June 2020. Then a bunch of new babies late June…. then repotted again and then again into subsequently larger pots.
We had about 25 plumerias going, but gave away many to our daughters. And we still have too many throghout the yard. but the flowers smell great

The end result photographically and horticulturally is always worth the wait
