{"product_id":"hilo-beauty","title":"Hilo Beauty","description":"\u003ch2\u003eHilo Beauty\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHilo Beauty is one of those reds that stops people mid-aisle. The blooms run a solid 3½ to 4 inches — among the largest of the deep reds — with wide, slightly overlapping petals and rounded tips. Color is a glossy, velvety maroon that can read almost black in heat or late light, with a strong red center and those telltale reddish-brown bands on both faces of the petal. Some growers also note a dark line running through the petal; that, plus the heavy texture, is how you tell a true Hilo Beauty from look-alikes.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe scent starts quietly spicy and gets stronger after the flower is picked or stored. Keeping quality is excellent — one of the reasons Hawaiian growers have used it in lei for decades. Registered with the Plumeria Society of America as #132 and also sold under names like Dakota’s Curling Red and Black Red, it is a \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePlumeria rubra\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e type: tall and upright with tight branching and long, dark green leaves that can show a reddish or blue-green cast.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis one is rooted, not grafted. That matters. Hilo Beauty is famously slow and fussy from cuttings — many commercial plants are grafted for that reason — so a plant that has already made its own roots is the harder, more valuable start. Give it heat, sharp drainage, and patience. Once it settles in, it rewards you with those long-lasting, velvety red clusters.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'San Francisco', 'Segoe UI', Roboto, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif; font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003ePlant Details\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColors:\u003c\/strong\u003e Velvety dark red with reddish brown veining\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eScent:\u003c\/strong\u003e Spicy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'San Francisco', 'Segoe UI', Roboto, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif; font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eBloom Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'San Francisco', 'Segoe UI', Roboto, 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif; font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e 3+\"\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrowth Habit: \u003c\/strong\u003eMedium\/Tall\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAvailability:  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003eRooted plumerias are grown organically here in south Louisiana, potted in air pruning pots, and ready for their new homes.
