I ordered some plumeria seeds off Ebay in a moment of riff-raff weakness. There are 75. I want about 12. Send me a DG mail with your address and I'll mail you some when they get here from Thailand. There are three varieties. They may not be true to seed but this is what they allegedly look like:
1. "smoke": http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-PLUMERIA-RUBRA-FRANGIPANI-FLOWERS-SMOKE-50-SEEDS-FRESH-VIABLE-RARE-/221001823083?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item3374bc336b
2. "salmonpink": http://www.ebay.com/itm/Plumeria-Seeds-Flowers-Salmonpink-Fresh-21-seeds-/281150968244?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item4175e751b4
3. "jack violet:: http://www.ebay.com/itm/PLUMERIA-FRANGIPANI-FLOWERS-JACK-VIOLET-50-SEEDS-FRESH-RARE-/320840235295?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item4ab391791f
who wants free plumeria seeds
I have NO idea how this got re-posted more than an hour after I hit "send" and went to the grocery store.
Ghost in the machine?

"riff-raff weaness"! haha! Those will give you some interesting possibilities. Bien suerte!
Well, they arrived yesterday. They are definitely plumeria seeds. Probably from 15 years ago, or all white : P But I am an ever optimistic gardener!
I am going to start some soon. I want to use them as grafting stock and also for some grafting experiments. There is a guy on FB that starts about 15 in the same pot in premium coir. I am going to give it a try.
Are you on FB?
I also had that "moment of riff-raff weakness" when I read about folks growing from plumeria seeds on here and bought some from ebay, was like 15 seeds. That was 2 months ago and the seeds are still sitting in the envelope in came in. Might have to plant them sometime.
Its been too hot and is too much work just keeping the plants alive.
