Under the collective name "The Sicilians," Plumeria varieties are grouped that originated on the beautiful Italian island of Sicily, although the exact breeder can no longer be clearly identified today or is not the focus. Instead of a single name, the shared origin is at the center here: the special light, the climate, and the horticultural passion of Sicily.

Sicily offers excellent conditions for the cultivation and selection of Plumerias with its warm summers, mild transitional seasons, and Mediterranean character. Many varieties that originated there visibly carry this origin within them: with bright colors, sun-warmed yellows, oranges, pinks, or reds, and often a very Mediterranean-tropical aura.

"The Sicilians" thus represent Plumerias that carry not only plants but also a piece of island feeling within them. They combine tropical beauty with European charm and show that impressive and collectible varieties have also emerged outside the classic countries of origin. Even if no single breeder’s name has been reliably passed down, their origin remains something special. Because Sicily is not just an island – for many of these varieties, it is also a part of their identity.
