Plumeria 'Gloria de los Angeles'
Plumeria 'Gloria de los Angeles' is a stunning cultivar developed by Florida Colors Nursery as a seedling of the beloved 'India'. This variety produces striking 3 1/2-inch flowers with a beautiful orange and red coloration, complemented by fabulously strong, spicy-sweet fragrance. The flowers feature vibrant red bands on the back that show through the petals, adding to their visual appeal.
Unlike its parent 'India', which is known for its tall growth habit, 'Gloria de los Angeles' is more compact, making it a fantastic choice for gardens where space is limited. Despite the compact growth, the flowers bloom in nicely sized clusters, producing an impressive display. The petals are thick and offer excellent keeping quality, ensuring that the blooms last longer once opened.
'Gloria de los Angeles' is a great bloomer with a strong, spicy-sweet scent that will fill your garden with fragrance. It combines the best traits of its parent, India, but in a more manageable growth form.
In summary, Plumeria 'Gloria de los Angeles' is a compact, great-blooming variety with beautiful orange and red flowers, a strong spicy-sweet fragrance, and excellent keeping quality. It offers the visual appeal and fragrance of 'India' but with a more compact growth habit.
