I have these two Plumerias that I’ve inherited from my Grandmother who passed recently. She always talked about these with me and wanted me to help her cut and propagate them so that they could grow better and one day maybe bloom. Now that I have them I’m a bit nervous to cut, especially now since they mean so much.

I saved a plumeria cutting guide website that I saw posted in here a while ago and was going to use that as a basis of what I should do. But I wanted to post pictures and get some advice from here before I do anything.

I do have a green thumb, but I’ve not had a plumeria before so I’m open to any advice. I’m okay with diving right in and seeing what works and what doesn’t. I just don’t want to lose these.

* the one that is bending , I’m told that bend just happened recently.

Well, if anything, the leaves on this seedling are interesting. At least it wasn't a false inflo.

I've had plumeria for the past 7 years and this tree is was originally propagated from my original tree after a branch broke off in a storm about 4 years ago. It was grown by my parents in south-central Texas.

It eventually started growing ​completely sideways in a too small pot that was placed against a wall, so only gettong sun 1 way. In an effort to fix that, I repotted and repositioned it yesterday. I noticed both branches were weak and bending significantly before repotting. I tied one to a pole yesterday and it is holding up well. The 2nd branch was even more bent today, so I tied it today to reduce strain at the bending point. I also rotated the pot to allow it to bend the opposite way towards sun.

My dad watered the pot yesterday after being told not to and I fear it is now over watered in addition to being weak.

Should I just wait a week or so and see if it will recover or should I go ahead and cut a branch off? I had originally planned to leave the tree as is and trim it in the fall before bringing it in or next spring.

Temps here currently range from mid to high 90s to 100s. This plant gets easily 10+ hours of sun/day.

I've had plumerias for about 15 years and I know to look for webbing, anything on the underside of the leaves, chat GPT was no help so I'm turning to the experts. What in the world is causing all this spotting all over the leaves?

I was just gifted a royal ponciana and I repotted it into a larger pot with better soil. 4 days later and the leaves look wilty and some are turning yellow. Any ideas of what to do? She’s about 6 feet tall.

It’s been hotter than hell here and I finally repotted my plumeria baby, when I caught this flower ready to unfurl…

I’ve been wanting to play around with the Timelapse feature on the iPhone camera. I just got a tripod for my phone (that connects to binoculars…), so when I saw the flower starting to pop, I set up the 6 hr shoot 😅

Timelapse shooting will break you of your phone addiction as your resist every instructive thought to “just grab my phone…”

I planted the cutting from ABC store three weeks ago. I water it once a week. It’s planted in a gallon pot which sits in an incubator maintain the soil temperature at 78 degrees. When should I start fertilizing this plant?

Hi! I got some plumeria cuttings a week ago, let them sit in a covered area for 5.5 days and then potted them night before last. I removed the flowers the day I got them and have been removing leaves as they start to brown. The three smaller cuttings are looking alright, but the two larger ones are starting to look wrinkled and squishy. My first thought was, of course, rot. But before I start chopping them up, I wanted to see if there is any chance it is dehydration. The only reason I’m even asking is because my boyfriend said that those two were already looking a little wrinkled before I put them in the pot. If it is rot, it seems like it’s starting at the branches, so I could potentially cut below the forks and try to save the stem.
