How to plant plumeria

1. Cutting

Generally, the cutting method is used. This method has a higher survival rate and is the most common. The best time is mid-to-late May. Choose plants with good growth and cut thick branches from them, about 20-30cm in length. After cutting it, white juice will flow out and you can put it in a cool place to dry. Then choose clean plain sand or vermiculite as the cutting medium, insert it, spray water every other day to ensure that the soil is moist, it will take root in about a month, and then you can cultivate it in a pot.

2. Layering

Bury the long branches that are growing well underneath it in a small pit next to it to ensure the supply of water and nutrients. After a period of time, roots will grow. Then you can cut it off from the original mother plant and maintain it separately.

3. Grafting

This method is also more commonly used. Suitable rootstock and scion are the most basic, and then oblique cuts are cut on the rootstock, and the two oblique cuts are roughly the same. Insert the scion and secure it in place, cover it with a plastic bag, and then wait for it to take root.

4. Sowing

Buy seeds and sow them in the soil, making sure it is moist. This will help seedlings grow, but this method is slow and not often used.
