How to Plant a Plumeria Cutting Please keep in mind.... different people have different methods because they have found what works for them. You may have to try different things to see what works best for not only you but for where you live. 1) Dry the cutting: If the plumeria cutting is fresh, you may want to dry it out. This should take any where from 1-2 weeks. You will know when it is ready to plant by the color of the base. If the base is still white, the cutting is very fresh and not ready to plant. When the base has turned brown, it has dried out enough and is ready for planting. Make sure you leave these cuttings in an area that is shaded.TIP: I have left plumeria cuttings in my back porch for months without planting and they have turned out fine. 2) Prepare the soil: Prepare the soil mixture in the pot. Your local garden store will have bags of soil already mixed with perlite. If you want to mix your own soil, follow this mixture = 2/3rd perlite to 1/3rd soil) The soil should fill the pot leaving 1 inch from the rim. 3) Prepare the cutting: This step is best done with freshly cut plumeria cuttings. Once the plumeria cutting is ready, you will take the cutting and dip the base into water and then into a container of root hormone solution. You should add a generous amount of the root hormone to your plumeria cuttings base. After applying the root hormone, the base should be completely white.TIP: Most root hormone contains fungicide which prevents the bottom of the plumeria from rotting. Rotting is the leading cause of death in plumeria cuttings. 4) Planting the cutting:Place the cutting into the container filled with the mixed soil, planting them at a depth of 2-3 inches. I usually add some water to the mixture so that the soil is moist. Warning: Some may suggest to place gravel or dark stones on top of the soil to attract the sun. Be very careful with that, especially if you already live in a hot hot climate. Adding these rocks may cause the plumeria cutting to overheat and die. However, these plants do love the heat and grow faster. 5) Secure the cutting:If you haven’t added the top layer of gravel, install a stake to anchor the cutting. This will secure the new plant in place. If the plant is not secured, you risk root damage due to wind induced movement. HINT: Broken roots may cause the plumeria to have a slower growth rate. 6) Watering tips:Your planted plumeria cutting is ready to be watered. I have included the proper watering guidelines for your cuttings below. 7) Placement of cutting: Place in a sunny area and let nature take its course. What is the Simplest Way to Plant a Plumeria Cutting? This method has worked for my family for years. Not only is it easy, but it’s by far the cheapest way to plant your plumeria cutting. Take the cutting and place it in the pot or out in the yard. You may need to secure your cutting if it is a large cutting or if you want the tropical plant to have more support while the roots begin to grow. Once planted add water to your cutting. Place the potted plant in an area that receives full sun, or majority of sun throughout the day. This rule should also go for the cuttings that are buried in the yard. Then leave it alone and let nature do its thing. These exotic tropical plants do better when they are left alone. There are many more growing tips online if you would like to read up on it.
