I purchased this cutting almost three years ago not knowing what color the blooms would be. After patiently waiting and researching the needs of a plumeria (still learning!) I was rewarded with this beautiful bloom! Couldn’t be happier! 💛
I came home to L.A. from a week in Canada and my ‘Kaneohe Sunburst’ is beginning to bloom!
What a delicate and beautiful perfume!
The blooms are so big too! Hand shown for scale :)
After 3 years of brining this trimming home from Hawaii, there’s a bloom. But the trunk is…. Weird? I learned how to grow it better in the winter from yall but now she has this thick growing top and a skinny base. Is there something I should do to help trunk growth or will time equal things out?
For reference, I’m in Utah and we bounce back and forth between freezing cold and scorching heat so leaving her outside isn’t always an option.
I started some Super Round seedlings last year and just upgraded this one to a 6" pot. Out of the 6 seeds I started, this is the only one that's started branching. I did not expect to see branching on a such a small seedling!
We had a freeze in Florida this winter and my beautiful giant plumeria tree started to rot. We cut the mushy black branches back to where there was healthy white color on the insides and coated them with cinnamon. But now those parts are black and mushy. The more we cut, the rot just follows. Any help would be much appreciated. We really don't want to lose the tree. There are new baby leaves in the center down closest to the ground so maybe there's hope?🤞🏻🌿
Planted this sprig in October, started sprouting leaves a couple months back. When has it outgrown this pot and should it go to a bigger pot or is it good to go straight in the ground from here?
Hey everyone! I’ve had this plumeria for a year (I planted it march 2025), during its first months it grew incredibly nicely, the leaves were a bright green and it looked strong and promising. Fast forward to December 2025, I had to move across the country and ofc I took it with me. I think the move stressed it out a bit because ever since then it started losing leaves and now it’s looking like this. The only leaves that are left are turning yellow and falling off. Is this normal? Thank you in advance. (I put a before vs after picture for better understanding)
A NOID that came from my deceased mom's condo, JJ essence, and JJ Mojito. Others are also blooming but these three have a place in my heart.
Hi- I have two 2 year old plumerias and they have never bloomed. This year I started giving fertilizer. I never gave it anything the last two years. I am not sure if it's correct but I read to get it out of dormancy, to give it bone meal. I did that in March. A few weeks.ago I gave it a bit of Hawaiian Bud & Bloom. I also added worm casing. Am I doing this correctly? I am hoping to plant in ground next year. I read it's best to plunge it for 2 years. Any information is appreciated. Thank you!
I've had this plant since it was a wee branch brought back from Hawai'i by a neighbor 6 years ago and this is the first time its had the gel substance on some of the branches and a few brown spots. I also noticed 2 tiny spots on the back of 2 leaves (one spot on each leaf) that looks like goo or butter (its not butter). Its an indoor only plant, and I just started slowly watering it again after winter. I'm not sure what other info I should include but am happy to answer questions. Its the only plant I've had in the last decade because prior to that, any plant I brought home died, so I gave up plants. Then this guy showed up and I fell in love and have tried like crazy to keep him going and now I fear I've done it again. What should I do to get him healthy? Thank you for any help!
Missed this yesterday when i created my post. "Silver Margin" (yes it looks yellow when developing. It will fade to a silver color with time).
I have several small potted plumeria (zone 7B - so not exactly their favorite home). Several years old and they pretty much have only grown straight up (only one has bloomed and split and all are older than 3 years) - is my only option to lop the top off to encourage branching? Thanks!
What is this on my new plumeria leaves?
I picked up some plumeria cuttings from my sister and we weren’t sure they would even take. 1:3 survived. They were all in a container together, but as the loan survivor, I moved it to a small pot this morning so I don’t over water going forward.
What I noticed that was despite what is going on at the top, there were no roots at the bottom of the plant. I’ve been babying this thing since the end of February.
Do I carry on or start over and buy some new cuttings?
Picked up right where she left off last year! Smells amazing
This is the second round of seedlings I’ve grown from the same tree(RIP lost it in the Florida freeze) and a few of the babies have the same reddish base with these wavy leaves.
Anyone else have something similar? I read around about wavy leaves and most say it lacks water but that’s just not the case. With these new babies showing the same feature, I assume it’s gotta be genetic.
Just took them out of the greenhouse for the 3rd or 4th time this spring. They remain in pots here in the Lowcountry.
