Does anyone grow the yellow plumeria called Melemele. I would be willing to trade fig cuttings or an air layer. It is such a beautiful plant and I saw one today in an office and would like to try growing some. If there is anyone willing to trade please PM me.

Thank you,

Swizzle

Hi Swizzle,

I recently purchased a melemele cutting from a seller in Hawaii on Amazon. It just arrived this week and came well packed, shipped quickly, and it looks very healthy. I paid about $10 for it and dont recall if that included shipping. Happy to give you the name of the seller if you're interested.

Also, not sure if this will help you or not but I'll give it a shot.

Just getting into plumeria myself. Joined a local plumeria group on facebook. They sent out an alert this week that the Lowe's stores in Arizona received large shipments of many different varieties of plumeria from Jungle Jack nurseries. This info might not be of help to you if you're not in AZ, but if you're in the western part of the country your Lowe's might have gotten in plumeria as well. Doesnt hurt to call and find out.

Also check out ebay for cuttings from hawaii and thailand.

That plumeria you're looking for is beautiful and I hope I'll see an inflow from my cutting by this time next year!
