"Bring the aroma and beauty of the Tropics Into Your Home or Garden"
The easiest way to get started with your first Plumeria is to buy a cutting. Cuttings are 10-16" long and can be stored for up to a year (if correctly) before being planted. Rooting a cutting is easy. Just use a well draining soil mixture. Dip the dried end of your cutting into a rooting hormone then stick your Plumeria cutting into the new soil mix down to about 3 inches. It is recommended that you water the cutting sparingly until it has several well formed leaves. If the weather is hot you can lightly water every couple of days. Just be sure the soil is dry most of the time. You will know that the roots have begun to grow when you see leaves begin to form. This should be in about 6-8 weeks. You'll fall in love with the Plumeria, as we did!
