Product Details
Overview & Specifications
Plumeria rubra ‘Apricot’
A sculptural tropical specimen delivering warm apricot, peach, and coral blooms with a commanding fragrance through the summer months. Advanced stock means an established canopy and immediate visual presence, no waiting for a cutting to mature into something worth looking at.
Why Plumeria 'Apricot'
Distinctive flower colour: Layered tones of apricot, peach, and soft orange set this cultivar apart from standard frangipani offerings.
Exceptional fragrance: One of the most recognisable and evocative scents in tropical horticulture, sustained across the full summer season.
Sculptural branching structure: Naturally forms a bold, architectural canopy that reads as a feature element without additional shaping.
Coastal and heat tolerance: Performs reliably in exposed, sun-drenched, and salt-affected sites where lesser specimens struggle.
Low resource demand: Once established, requires minimal irrigation and no routine feeding to sustain performance.
Ideal Applications
Pool and entertainment surrounds: Delivers the resort aesthetic that high-end residential projects demand, with fragrance and canopy in equal measure.
Courtyard feature planting: Scaled appropriately for enclosed or intimate spaces where a single specimen anchors the entire composition.
Tropical and sub-tropical planting schemes: Pairs naturally with palms, heliconias, and large-leafed foliage plants for a cohesive, layered landscape.
Large container installation: Suitable for oversized planters on terraces, rooftop gardens, and commercial hospitality settings.
Specimen & Installation
Spacing (feature/avenue): 4 to 6m
Best Planting Season: Spring to early summer
Soil & Drainage: Well-drained sandy or loamy soil; drought tolerant once established; avoid heavy clay or waterlogged conditions
Establishment Care: Water regularly during the first growing season to encourage root establishment, then reduce watering as the plant is drought tolerant. Avoid overwatering, which can cause root rot, and apply a slow-release fertiliser in spring to promote vigorous growth and flowering.
