1 In tropical regions, the frangipani may reach a height of 30-40 feet and grow half as wide. 2  Frangipani plants have long leather, fleshy leaves in clusters near the branch tips. 3  Frangipani plants have widely spaced, thick succulent branches which are round or pointed.
It usually takes three years or so before your new plant blooms, whereas with plant propagation from cuttings you should see your new frangipani flowers in the first year. Seeds should be sown when the seed pod splits in early spring.
