Aartiji, yes as Ushadi says Plumerias are IDd from leaf apices. Here the 
apex is acuminate hence this is P. rubra. Here rubra is not alluring to 
colour and plants with yellow, white and red flowers fall in this sp. The 
petals are broad and overlapping. The other tree that has obtuse leaf apex 
is Plumeria alba. This has larger flowers with narrow segments which are 
usually white. Horticulturals varieties may be several. Regards,
