During winter, when the plumeria goes through dormancy, you can cut back watering to half. If you are growing in a pot, you can easily check soil moisture by sticking your finger into the potting mix. When the top several inches feel dry to the touch, apply water until it runs from the bottom drain holes.

During summer, you may have to water every other day. Additionally, make sure that the containers you are using always have a drain hole at the bottom to prevent problems with rot and too soggy soil.

When the plumeria is dormant in winter, you can cut back apply water to every week or two. Grow it in an indoor location with bright light. After planting the plumeria in a warm site receiving at least 6 hours of full sun, with well-drained soil and irrigating properly, the next important step is applying fertilizer. Just like people, plumeria requires adequate nutrients for bloom production and healthy growth. When using fertilizer for the productions of blooms, make sure to use a product that contains a high amount of phosphorus.

When looking at a fertilizer package and you see the three main numbers NPK. The first number on the fertilizer package N represents the amount of nitrogen found in the product. Nitrogen helps in producing good green growth. Select a fertilizer blend that has a lower nitrogen content. Phosphorus assists in making the blooms more abundant and larger. Select a fertilizer product with a higher middle number.

The last number is potassium K , and it is needed for healthy overall growth and root development. Using a fertilizer blend with an NPK ratio like a works well. Plumerias grown in containers are more dependent on feeding applications than those grown in landscape. We recommend using a water-soluble blend that can be applied to your potted plant at your regular scheduled watering time.

Using a fertilizer with higher phosphorus content will help increase the chance of big blooms. When applying a granular fertilizer to plants grown in the landscape, use the amount suggested on the label and spread evenly over the growing site. Be sure not to allow the product to butt against the trunk or it can suffer burning. Once applied, be sure to thoroughly water into the planting site.

Spread the mulch back over the site and water the soil. When it comes to the frequency of use, apply a fertilizer every four to six weeks. During winter and while the plumeria is dormant, cease all fertilizer applications and restart again in spring.

For plumeria grown in containers, feed monthly. Mix a water-soluble blend into a watering can and apply it when you normally water, allowing it to saturate the root system. Since the salts in fertilizer can eventually build up in the potting mix and cause burning, flush the soil every six months or so.

Additionally, cease fertilizing in winter while the plumeria is dormant. A healthy and productive plumeria usually starts blooming in early summer, which generally continues into early fall. If your plumeria is located in a shady area, you may need to move it to a spot that receives more sunlight to help it bloom.

Plumerias are native to tropical areas so they grow and bloom best when humidity levels are high. Bloom Booster Flower Food is an excellent choice for fertilizing plumerias, with a ratio of to promote an abundance of flowers. Plumerias grow and flower well in containers as long as they receive at least six hours sun each day. Choose a large container with drainage holes in the bottom and place it on a pot stand with wheels so you can move it around easily.

Pruning plumerias each year will keep the tree to a small size and helps to keep it healthy by removing any dead or diseased branches. Frangipani flowers that fall off the tree can be floated in a bowl of water or added to bath water to make it pretty and fragrant. Place the vase in a cool spot away from direct sunlight and change the water every couple of days to help the flowers last longer. With the right care and conditions your plumeria shrub or tree will reward you with a stunning display of fragrant flowers each year.
