Description

Capalaba Pink, also known as Australia, Miss Perkins, Unconditional Love, and Mango Passion, is a remarkable plumeria variety renowned for its 3-inch, medium compact flowers. The blooms showcase a striking deep reddish-pink hue, characterized by their thick and velvety texture. The rounded petals, notably plump and tactile, often feature a unique 'hook' or tag at their tips, adding an intriguing twist to their appearance.

The blooms of Capalaba Pink are distinguished not just by their visual appeal but also by their exceptional keeping quality, ensuring their beauty endures. This plumeria emits a strong, sweet frangipani fragrance, a captivating scent that combines the freshness of citrus with the richness of sweet florals, enhancing any garden space with its delightful aroma.

As a heavy and early bloomer, Capalaba Pink creates a striking display of color and scent. Its growth habit is medium compact, forming a nice symmetrical tree that adds aesthetic appeal to any landscape. The profuse and reliable blooming of this variety ensures a continuous show of its gorgeous flowers.

A notable backstory of Capalaba Pink involves its original tree on Love Lane in the city of Townsville, North Queensland. This tree, a symbol of the variety's resilience and beauty, was said to have been destroyed by cyclone Yasi, marking a poignant chapter in its history.

The petals of Capalaba Pink are unusually fat, giving the flower a unique and special appearance that sets it apart from other plumerias. This distinctive trait, combined with its enchanting fragrance and robust blooming habit, makes Capalaba Pink a highly desirable variety for both dedicated collectors and casual enthusiasts alike.

In summary, Capalaba Pink is a variety that commands attention with its deep reddish-pink flowers, distinguished by their voluptuous petals and enduring beauty. Its citrus sweet floral scent and medium compact growth make it a superb choice for adding both visual and olfactory splendor to any garden setting.
