Frangipani

The Frangipani comes in over 300 different varieties and is also known as the plumeria and is native to Mexico, Central and South America, and Hawaii. The plumeria flower is a very poisonous plant and great care must be taken when handling this plant due to this. This flower has one distinction: It is mainly at its highest peak of fragrance at night. Another thing that is funny is that this flower has no nectar, so any bee, bird or other pollinator that comes along has a trick in store for them!
