Hi Jeff. I've been propagating plumeria for several years here in Southern California. I just wanted to share that I find that a "ready-to-go" potting mix for rooting is MiracleGro Cactus Mix. It provides great drainage, and still holds enough water to keep the plumeria satisfied. I like your presentations. Nice work.

I found a plumeria cutting I bought in Hawaii in November of 2022 and I am getting the chicken feet on it! I literally had no idea what I was doing and put it into a small 4 in pot with some Jiffy seed starting mix. 😅😅 I’m going to follow your repotting directions! TY! I am still shocked that it lived in my laundry room for a year and a half and still took!

What an awesome channel and a great host.
Just ordered my first 80cm Hawaiian pink opal plumeria for an indoor rainforest project at home in the UK.
I'll definitely be on this channel for your knowledge and tips.

Hi Jeff, I'm a "liker" and subscriber from Lake Charles, LA. Yesterday I potted up a rooted plumeria cutting about 3' long that has 3 branches and a few small leaves into an approx. 3 gal. terra cotta pot. I used Fertilome succulent potting soil with added perlite for extra drainage. I ordered it from an online site called J&J Plumeria. I guess I got lucky and got one that had already branched, like I said, THREE times! It's 2:33 in the afternoon in Lake Charles on April 13, 2024 and it's about 75 degrees with a clear sky. Last year I had ordered 4 rootless cuttings from an online source and did what I understood to be all the right things, and every last one rotted! This year I wasn't taking any chances and got one that was already past the rooting stage and looks to be just coming out of dormancy with its small leaves. This time I'll watch how much water it gets, always keeping it a little on the dry side. (I guess I'm gun shy!) The only thing I didn't do was brush it with cinnamon powder (to ward off root rot), but I dusted to root ball good with rooting hormone then watered it lightly. I'll keep you posted on how it comes along. Thanks for posting teaching videos on your great channel!

Hi Jeff, new subscriber - quick question. I noticed your plumeria cutting had something white on the stalk. is that something to protect the stalk?

[steveh]

I just received my plumeria cutting (remote location) I will be using the sphagnum moss way. I have another plumeria that took too long to do the things (because I didn't know).

I live in Central Texas. I bag rooted some cuttings a few weeks ago. No visible roots yet. Should I leave the cuttings in the bags over the Fall and Winter, or pot them up as soon as I see roots. If left in their bags, would they need any additional moisture? Where should I store them over the Winter months?

Last week when it was very windy. One of my plumerias fell over and broke a branch. I watch your segments on how to root a branch. You advised to buy some sphagnum moss, wrap it around the branch Then place a bag over it. You advised to keep it warm at 78 to 80 degrees. The branch was broken last saturday which was October 22, 2022 and the temps now is about 70-72 degrees during the day. So how do I try to root the branch when it very cool. I have the branch inside my house which stays about 69 degrees. My other plant is already winterized.Any information would be appreciated.

Jeff, is there a best time of year to propagate cuttings from my plants?
