Plumeria flowers, Hawaii, United States

Today's image features nature's own vibrant confetti—plumeria flowers, often grown in tropical regions, mostly in Hawaii, United States. This species has no nectar, yet it tricks moths and butterflies with its irresistible scent—a mix of citrus, jasmine, gardenia, coconut, peach, vanilla and woody undertones. These flowers come in a variety of colours, including pink, red, white, yellow, orange or pastel. As captivating as they are, their milky sap is toxic, so handle with care!

This tropical beauty is rich in history, symbolism and cultural significance. In Hawaii, known as melia, is often used in leis—floral garlands—for welcoming visitors. It also signals relationship status—tucked behind the right ear means 'single', while the left ear says 'taken'. From temple offerings to luxury perfumes, backyard gardens to exotic landscapes, plumeria flowers add beauty and fragrance to a variety of settings.
