FLOWERS OF ALOHA…….. finally!
Many years ago, one of Mommy’s friends had a Plumeria tree that had some of da most BEAUTIFUL flowers I have ever seen. Deep red pink that turned to golden yellow in the center. Her friend gave her a stalk of the tree to see if mom could grow her own. She brought the cutting home and tried to propagate it (”propagate” is just a fancypants word for “grow”. I so intellectual, ya??).
It did start to take root, and about two years later, we had something that resembled a very small plumeria tree with a few leaves, but no flowers. A few more years passed and the tree grew larger with many more branches and leaves, but still no flowers. What da heck??? You sure you know what you are doin, Mama?? I was beginning to think it would never bloom.
Finally, last month, after FIVE YEARS of patient waiting (which is almost since da time I was BORN!!), flower buds started to appear on the ends of the limbs. Our Plumeria finally gave us it’s beautiful flowers we had so longed for. It was definitely worth the wait….. at least I think it was. Mommy sure has some strange ideas about what to do wit deez flowers though. Oh well, they smell absolutely wonderful an I am a real Hawaiian Boy anyways!!! ALOHA !!!!
