Watering

Plumerias should be watered when their soil is completely dry. Use a moisture meter to ensure that the soil is completely dry at root level, not just at the surface. The reason being, plants in containers dry from the top down. When you water your Plumeria, give it a heavy soak. Depending on the area in which you live, you may have to water more or less often based on the local climatic conditions. Using a moisture meter is proven to be the best guide in determining when to water a plant. Once you have soaked your plant do not water again until it is completely dry. Never over-water your Plumerias. No water is usually required during the months of December through mid-February. Water no more than 1 to 2 cups a month if necessary. Begin watering again after mid-February.

Fertilizing

Fertilize your Plumerias with a high phosphorous fertilizer March through November. We recommend using a 10-52-10 fertilizer.

Environment

Plumerias require full sun, but provide filtered sunlight in desert areas. Plumerias can easily acclimate to any environment. They do better in containers that provide excellent drainage. Plumerias can be planted in the ground once they reach 4 ft. in height.

Dormant Season

Plumerias go dormant around mid-November through March. The plant will lose it’s leaves and flower stalks. Once the plant enters dormancy, there is no need to water or fertilize. Place your plant under an eave or patio to protect it from the rainy winter weather. If you live where frost is a problem, move your Plumerias indoors or cover with a frost blanket. Do not set the frost blanket directly on the plant. You can use a stake to prop the blanket in a manner that will keep it off the Plumeria.

Transplanting

All transplanting should be done in May for best results using a cactus mix. Transplant your Plumerias when the soil is completely dry to enable getting most of the existing root. The more of the roots you keep intact, the better. Once you have transplanted your Plumeria, give it a good soak.

Planting

Insert cutting into cactus mix soil making sure that it is deep enough to stand sturdy but not touching the bottom of the pot. The pot should not be over-sized.  Press down on the soil and pack it tightly around the cutting. Cuttings should not be disturbed. Cutting should be started in filtered sun.

Watering

Water lightly, (1 cup) once a week throughout the rooting process (90-100 days).  Depending on the temperatures of the area you live in , watering may need to be done more or less often than once per week.  An exception is made for red flower cuttings, which should be kept a little on the dry side, rather than damp.  Reds also take longer to root.  Watering should be done early morning or late afternoon.

Rooted

Plumeria cuttings are rooted when new leaves are four to five inches long.  Once rooted, change the watering cycle to soak your Plumeria until it’s completely wet, and only water again when the soil is completely dry. Rooted plants like to be kept on the dry side.  Plumerias are more forgiving of neglect of watering, rather than over-watering. Fertilize your rooted plumeria plant once a month with a high phosphorus fertilizer.  We recommend a 10-52-10 fertilizer.

If you purchased our Plumeria food, we carry a 10-52-10 fertilizer that’s a brilliant blue in color. No, it is not Miracle-Gro! The blue coloring is a UV protectant. The fertilizer will not spoil, but once mixed should be used immediately. Mixing directions can be found on the label, but we’ve posted them here as well.

To use, add 4 level teaspoons to 1 gallon of water and mix thoroughly. A 1 gallon mixture is enough to feed 4 small plants or 1 large (3 feet or taller) plant. Pre-soak your plants prior to feeding. Apply the mixture directly to the soil at the base of the plant. Our Plumeria food is great for other blooming plants as well, use a half dose (2 level teaspoons per 1 gallon of water) to feed.
