Plumeria Blooming

Posted by PicasaLast year when my son was in Hawaii, he brought several Plumeria stalks back with him, and was so excited about this flower, the flower of the Hawaiian Lei. I kept these Plumeria plants alive through winter and with summer, placed them outside in a sunny spot, worried that I had not cared well enough for them. I am so happy to see that although the plants themselves do not appear to be robust, one of them is blooming. What a delight, as a green thumb I do not particularly have. Most gardening successes have been without my intervention. If anyone has helpful information for keeping and growing a Plumeria in Maryland, I'd listen gratefully.
