The plumeria is bouncing back as you can tell. The lone leaf is still there but it now has 4 more to keep it company.These plants really are good at being dormant. You can see the dark bottom of the plant where it was when it was bought last year. Then the tannish area above it where it grew last summer/fall. Now the green area on top is the new growth since it came to the office.
I should probably bring it back outside so it can take full advantage of the spring / summer sun.
One of our friends used to have over a dozen of these in pots and she'd take them out of storage every year to have them grow more. Some were over 5 feet tall.
A coworker at the office confuses the chocolate tree with coffee. I can see the confusion, although they don't look anything alike. Would be neat to have a coffee plant also though. They're spindly compared to the trunk a cacao tree will eventually have but who wouldn't like to have a little home grown coffee?
What plants do you currently have growing in your garden/pots? What would you like to be growing? Do you have a plant wish list?
