Hello Guys!!

Still with me @Grisai-Steem, this time I will introduce a frangipani flower, the Plumeria Acuminata type. I found this flower in my grandmother's garden, which is located behind the house. What is Plumeria Acuminata? How does it look? So this time I will introduce it to you. Of course I also include the use of this flower along with a picture of the flower. Let's see the information.

Kemboja, kamboja or semboja (Plumeria) is a group of plants in the Plumeria clan. The shape is a small tree with sparse but thick leaves. The flowers are very distinctive fragrant, with a white to purplish red crown, usually five strands. Flowers with four or six petals by certain people are considered to have magical powers.

Frangipani flowers do not only consist of one type but also various kinds, including the Plumeria Bali-Whirl. This frangipani flower has a stacked crown. There is also Plumeria Acuminata, the shape of the crown is rounded and the ends are rolled up. The third is Plumeria Acutifolia, the smell of the flowers is fragrant.

Its use is as a medicine
Frangipani flowers have a number of medicinal compounds, namely triterprenoid amirin, lupeol, and fulvoplumierin. These substances are antipyretic (reduce fever), antiinflarnative (treat inflammation), and analgesic (relieve pain). Because of these ingredients, frangipani flowers are useful for reducing menstrual pain and preventing fainting due to hot air or exposure to sunlight (heat stroke).

Food
Frangipani flowers can also be used to make various kinds of snacks, for example, to make flower tempura. The method is easy, just by smearing fresh frangipani flowers with a mixture of spices in the form of garlic, pepper, salt mixed with wheat flour and baking powder and frying them until crisp. like crackers. This is another creation in the use of frangipani flowers, which have been known only as garden decoration flowers.
