If you want your own plumeria plant,you can grow it from cuttings, or severedbranches from a mature plant. First, you'llhave to cut, strip the branch of most of its leaves, and drythe branch, then plant it in the proper pottingmedium.
Herein, how do you root a plumeria branch?
Prepare a mix of 2/3 perlite and 1/3 potting soil andfill a large container. (You can also plant them directly in theground if you live in a very warm climate). Dip the cut endof your cuttings in a rooting hormone and sink themabout halfway down into the potting mixture.
In this regard, how deep do you plant a plumeria cutting?
A good size for a cutting is about 12 inches.Thelarger the cutting is the easier to plant and root.4) Planting the cutting:Place the cutting intothe container filled with the mixed soil, planting them at adepth of 2-3 inches. I usually add some water to the mixture sothat the soil is moist.
Water upon planting and every two weeks until 3-4inch leaves appear. Plumeria definitely like to dry out inbetween watering especially during the rooting stage as itencourages the roots to form.
