Looking for plumerias in Austin, TX

Looking for plumerias in Austin, TX. I'd like to buy a small-ish potted one. Do you know of any good local suppliers?

I'd like to buy a potted plumeria, ideally one that's blooming at least a little already. I don't know where to look here in town. Ideally I'd like to find a place that has a few different varieties for me to choose from.

Looking for something a foot or two high at most, preferably white flowers, but might go for combinations involving some yellow and some pink depending on the fragrance.

So where should I go to find a good selection?

I haven't seen them at the usual haunts, so I'm not sure how much selection you'll be able to find. Two places that I recommend, as they tend to cary more exotic stuff than most:

Big Red Sun on E. 1st. Open sporadically, so call and ask instead of going in.

Wild Outdoors on S. Congress. This is a big place. I haven't seen this plant in particular, but this is probably your best bet.

The Natural Gardener is also a good resource. They have a notification list you can sign up for if they have something out of stock that they'll be getting later (I just got a call about gardenias today).
