Purple Jack Plumeria
Purple Jack aka Muang Jack, Jack’s Purple, Violet Purple. from Jungle Jacks in Thailand. Lovely and unusual plumeria. Despite the confusion in names, this is a MUST HAVE for your collection. Jack has a sweet soft perfume and a 3″ flower with more on pink in my cooler area. Purple Jack is a lavender but only if you have enough heat and light. First purple color plumeria available in US, purple color with darker veins throughout the flowers, orange color toward center. Seedling of Penang Peach. Needs heat to bring out colors. Once it starts blooming it is an eager and reliable bloomer. It just needs a well established root system. I’ve had early year branchlet start an inflo late season, which is to say the dominate branchlets may produce blooms the first season that they formed. Purple Mauve with strong Lavender unless there is heat over 85 to 90s. Not cold tolerant. Medium Tall Grower. Sets seed.
