madhuri...its just not the flower petal... if you look closely... the leaves often are different ...there is a variablility inherent in the plumerias...
keep looking... we have several of these along my daily walk... all have a just a tad bit different leaves or petals or even flower scent... that 's what make the walk so interesting... it just like the case of many of the sarcomas.... where there is marked variability in the cells... if you keep looking at soft tissue tumors... yet they are all sarcomas... and here they are all plumeria obtusa... it boils down to experience... curiosity and willingness to put it together ( you have these last qualifications in abundance) your flower in thread "''For Id 14102011MR1’’ is older... opened the day before... if you smell such a flower.. almost no scent... or very faint.... do not inhale too deeply... many small pollinators hide in the nectar tube...ha ha .. usha di ==== On Oct 14, 1:21 pm, Madhuri Raut <[email protected]> wrote: > Thank you Ajinkya ji for Id > One query are there many varieties of this same flower because the flowers > petals in the two posts that I posted today look different > Regards > Bhagyashri > > On Fri, Oct 14, 2011 at 1:23 PM, ajinkya gadave > <[email protected]>wrote: > > > > > > > > > *plumeria obtusa > > * > > > On Fri, Oct 14, 2011 at 12:36 PM, Madhuri Raut <[email protected]> wrote: > > >> Request for identification > > >> Date/Time-Sep 2011 > > >> Location- Place, Altitude, GPS-Pune > > >> Habitat- Garden/ Urban/ Wild/ Type-Garden > > >> Plant Habit- Tree/ Shrub/ Climber/ Herb- Shrub > > >> Height/Length- 6-7 feet > > >> Leaves Type/ Shape/ Size-green > > >> Flowers Size/ Colour/ Calyx/ Bracts- white > > >> Fruits Type/ Shape/ Size Seeds-Not seen > > >> Regards > > >> Bhagyashri
