Plumeria Cuttings 101: A Quick Guide to Growing Your Tropical Paradise
To ensure successful rooting, measure and mark the cutting 2-3 inches from the bottom. We recommend a good quality potting mix soil. Adding some loose stones to the bottom of the pot will help with drainage. Fill the pot with the soil mix, leaving 1 inch from the pot rim. Dip the cutting in a cup of water, then dip it into rooting hormone. Sink the cutting into the pot until the marked line is even with the pot rim. Press and firm the mix and add more if needed. Fill the rest with pea gravel, again press and firm it down. Next, water it in until water drains out the holes. Finally, place the pot in a warm, sunny location and let it grow. Do not water again until the soil becomes dry. When in doubt about watering, wait a week to prevent overwatering.
