Botanic information
Leaf: The glabrous leaves are obovate to oblong-obovate with an obtuse, emarginate or an abruptly acuminate apex. The upper surface is glossy dark green and the pale green petiole is up to 38mm (1˝in) long extending to a whitish mid rib with anastomosing venation.

Flower: The bisexual salverform flowers have white obovate waxy petals that are yellow in the centre and a tube up to 20mm (ľin) long. They are arranged in a terminal thyrsiform cluster and appear from late spring to early summer.

Fruit: The plant produces a pair of large leathery lanceolate follicles that contain seeds with a basial wing. The seeds are viable but the plant may be reproduced vegetatively in order to maintain true to type.


Culture
Generally frangipani is easy to grow requiring a freely draining soil that has added organic material or compost and during summer it requires adequate moisture. It also requires at least half a day`s full sun and a frost free position.

The tree should never be planted outside in regions that have cold wet winters or experience frost particularly in heavy soils as it is susceptible to fungal root rot.
