The specific epithet is derived from the Latin ruber \"red\".\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe common name \"frangipani\" comes from the Italian Frangipani family, whose marquis invented a plumeria-scented perfume in the 16th century.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCare\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYour plant thrives best outdoors in summer; full sun is perfect for it. It should be brought indoors in winter and preferably placed in a warm and bright location, such as in a conservatory or behind a window. It fears excessive humidity when temperatures are low, so avoid cold rooms.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNote: do not move it in and out constantly; it should be taken out in good weather and then brought in when the cold arrives, as plants adapt their foliage to their environment, which should not be constantly changed. It often happens that plants lose their foliage when they are taken out and\/or brought in; don't worry, your plant will adapt and grow new foliage afterward.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFrangipani trees lose their leaves in winter and go dormant, so watering should almost completely stop during this period.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis plant tolerates pruning, but we do not recommend it as flowering will then take longer to occur.
