🌸 Why Perfumed Plumeria is tricky

😳 #Fun_Facts: Plumeria flowers, also known as frangipani, are famous for their sweet fragrance and vibrant colors. A fun fact is that despite their lovely scent, the flowers are actually devoid of nectar! They trick pollinators, such as moths, into visiting them in search of food, aiding in pollination without offering a reward.

Enjoy the fragrant blooms!
