"Frangipani"

Plumeria obtusa, highly scented growing in the Glasshouse at RHS Wisley. Reminds me of visits to India, Buenos Aires and St Lucia, all these locations have lots of "Frangipani" but I believe it was originally discovered in South America. Named in honour of a Catholic monk and botanist Charles Plumier, from the 17th century.
