Frangipani or Plumeria is unfortunately poisonous
The Frangipani belongs to the Hundsgiftgewächsen and is therefore poisonous. As beautiful as the flowers of the plant look and smell - if children and pets belong to the family, you should do without the rearing of Frangipani better.
Frangipani is poisonous in all plant parts
Like all dogbane plants, all plant parts of the frangipani contain a latex that is toxic. Not only if swallowed, but also on contact with the naked skin, it can trigger symptoms of poisoning.
Frangipani is therefore not suitable for households with children and animals.
When taking care of Plumeria you should always wear gloves so that no milk juice can reach the skin.
Tips
In summer, the Frangipani likes to move to the terrace. It is important that he is getting used to the direct sun slowly. Position it so that children and pets are not endangered.
