Propagating Plumeria Cuttings

1/22/2016

 
Picture
I just propagated 8 Plumeria cuttings and it's such a simple process.  I documented how I did it so if you follow these steps carefully then you should be able to do it with at least a 90% success rate.

Saw this on the sidewalk and saw an opportunity!

Picture

Removed all leaves and
used a sharp knife to cut individual branches

Picture

Keep Cuttings in a cool dry place for 3 days to allow the ends to callus over.

They Should Look like this

Apply rooting hormone Generously to the cut end

Picture

This is the magical sauce I use.  It's a purple liquid.

Picture

Punch a hole in the potting soil just a little wider than your cutting.  Plant your cutting deep enough so that it doesn't fall over.  (make sure the rooting hormone doesn't rub off when putting it down inside) Use a well draining soil, I used Miracle Gro Moisture Control potting mix.  The better soil you use, the better chance you have at this working.

Picture

Pat soil down firmly ensuring good contact with the cutting.  This also prevents the cutting from falling over.

Picture

Water them and place them in a sunny location.  Remember * Don't kill your plumerias with love.*  Be patient and they should start getting leaves.

    ​If you have any questions about care and maintenance then send me an email.
