Plumeria.ORIGINAL watercolor painting 11"x14"

In the Buddhist religion, the plumeria symbolizes immortality, probably because the tree will produce new blooms even after it is uprooted. In Laos, the plumeria tree is considered sacred – so sacred that they are planted outside every Buddhist temple. 
These trees live for hundreds of years.
In the Mayan culture, the plumeria bloom represents life and birth.
According to Mexican legend, the plumeria flower gave birth to the gods.
