What size frangipani should I purchase?

When buying a frangipani, you can choose from a range of sizes from a 50mm single-stem frangipani plant to a 2 or 3 metre established frangipani tree.

Flowers – Frangipanis produce flowers from the ends of the branches (crowns). Buying a larger frangipani with many branches will increase the chances of flowers each year.

Impact – Many people purchase a frangipani for an established garden or to be displayed as a feature tree. A larger frangipani will have a greater influence in the style of the garden or yard and will be more noticeable.

Strength – The more wood and the more roots a frangipani has, the stronger it is. Small frangipani can deteriorate more quickly if conditions are unfavourable and can be damaged more easily.

Price – A frangipani twice the height is likely to be around twice the price.

Freight – Most of our past Melbourne And Adelaide customers chose to purchase a frangipani tree priced between $250 to $500. Most of our past Sydney (including Newcastle, the Central Coast and Wollongong) customers chose to spend more than $150 and up to $1000 before freight.

Postage – If you order frangipanis to be mailed, you are usually limited to single stem plants with a stem of 15 to 20 centimetres long.
