Description
Plumeria 'Sherbet Town'
Plumeria 'Sherbet Town' (also known as Diamond Rainbow, Thai Salmon, and Orange 337) is a stunning cultivar with vibrant blooms, excellent fragrance, and a compact growth habit. Often compared to Temptation, this variety is known for its striking orange, cream, and red flowers, as well as its consistent and long-lasting blooming.
The flowers of 'Sherbet Town' measure between 3 to 3.5 inches and feature rounded, overlapping petals with a beautiful blend of orange and cream. The center of the bloom showcases a rich red eye, which contrasts beautifully with the surrounding orange and cream petals. The petals have broad oval shapes, with orange veining that gradually turns red on about 30% of the surface, adding depth and visual interest. The backside of each petal is white, with an intense red band along the margin, further enhancing its vibrant appearance.
This variety has a compact, sturdy growth habit with thick branches, making it an excellent choice for smaller garden spaces. The leaves are medium green, broad, elliptical, and pointed at the tips. The tree produces long-lasting flowers, and the intensity of the red color increases with heat and sunlight, creating an even more captivating display.
The scent of 'Sherbet Town' is sweet and floral, adding a pleasant fragrance to its already stunning visual appeal. The blooms are known to maintain their beauty over time, and the flower shape and size gradually flatten out, similar to the Golden Pagoda variety.
In summary, Plumeria 'Sherbet Town' is a hardy and consistent bloomer with vibrant orange, cream, and red flowers, a sweet floral fragrance, and a compact growth habit. Its striking coloration, long-lasting blooms, and reliability make it a prized addition to any collection.

Diamond Rainbow
Firstly, I have bought several plumerias from Florida Colors Nursery and all were beautifully rooted and in great shape! For people new to them, they do cut off all leaves for shipping. As to Diamond Rainbow, it has exceeded my expectations! I felt the need to write this review because during winter and Spring I house my plumerias in an inside greenhouse under shop lights which are low intensity so that many plumerias don’t display good color. But Diamond Rainbow looks just like the photo in these low light conditions!
