Pila is all about high skiing and lively aprÃ¨s-ski. And with Aosta town a gondola ride away, there's plenty more to see and do, too. Pila is located above the Roman town of Aosta, just a 20-minute gondola ride away. With a big vertical high, superb snow-making and slopes up to 2700m, itâs one of the most snowsure destinations in the Alps.
Frangipanis grow at a moderate rate to heights of up to 20 feet, though most seen in home landscapes are kept pruned about 6 to 8 feet tall. They need plenty of sun and work very well in hot, dry areas.
The frangipani is the national flower of Nicaragua and it features on some of their bank notes. Frangipanis won't burn except in extreme (over 500 degrees) temperatures. In Caribbean cultures the leaves are used as poultices (a healing wrap) for bruises and ulcers and the latex is used as a liniment for rheumatism.
