lazy is good. i live in so california and these plants are plumeria's that grow naturally in hawaii.

they require no care, no water, no nothing. they are like a weed that doesn't want to be annoyed. they want sun, heat, no water, they feed through the leaves from the air. they won't take frost. if you live somewhere i would be happy to send you some cutting to play with. most of them will grow. except for the burgandy, you can expect 80% of the cuttings to live.

i posted some pictures of some of my plumerias planted in the ground taller then my house. like many plants growth is based on the size of the container. you can grow these in a 5 gallon container and they will grow to 4 or 5 feet. in the ground, the sky's the limit.

the ones you see tied to a hunk of pvc were pretty much an accident. i left some cuttings on the patio table and forgot about them. when i came back from vegas three weeks later, they were putting out new leaves so i tied them to a pvc and i got a few to grow as you can see.

if you, or anyone else, are interested, i can send you a jpg or 2 and i will be happy to send some cuttings with enough directions to get started.
