History / Story<span class="pdb-inline-current-value">Notes: Moragne hybrid of Daisy Wilcox and Scott Pratt. Unlike many of the Moragnes, compact and tends to spread gently and beautifully outwards as opposed to fast and upwards. Her growth is very, very manageable and the flower heads can be enormous, with large numbers of them open at once during high season. I have often said she is one of the most underrated plumerias available because I am always meeting people who don't have one and never really gave getting one much thought.</span> <div class="pdb-inline-tools"><details class="pdb-inline-suggest pdb-inline-login-gate"><summary>Suggest correction</summary><div class="pdb-inline-panel"><p>To suggest a change, please log in or create a contributor account.
