A garden graced with blooming Frangipanis is a sight to behold. Frangipanis are not just a feast for the eyes, but they also carry a beautiful scent that’s synonymous with summer. While the traditional white Frangipani is a classic, there’s a rainbow of colours and a variety of species that can add unique charm to your garden. Let’s delve into the types of Frangipani that might just find a place in your garden’s heart.

How To Grow Frangipani From A Cutting

Evergreen vs Deciduous

Before we delve into the many types of Frangipani that are available at Garden Express, it’s important to understand the distinction between evergreen and deciduous Frangipanis. This knowledge will help guide you in selecting a variety that suits your garden’s climate and aesthetic.

Evergreen Frangipanis retain their lush foliage throughout the year, providing a continual display of green. The glossy leaves act as a charming backdrop to the vibrant flowers they bear. These varieties thrive particularly well in tropical climates, offering a perennially green spectacle. They are ideal for gardeners looking to maintain a verdant look in their outdoor spaces across all seasons.

Deciduous Frangipanis shed their leaves during the cooler months. As the warmer season unfolds, they come back to life, showcasing fresh foliage and brilliant blossoms. This cyclical nature makes them resilient to cooler climates. Your choice between the two will depend on local climate conditions and personal preference, each type bringing its own unique charm to your garden.
