THERE ARE NO LEAVES BUT MAY HAVE SOME LEAVES STARTING FROM THE TIP THAT WILL GROW OUT AS CUTTING ROOTS AND MATURES.Plumeria Plumeria, also called frangipani (Plumeria species), produces the fragrant, pinwheel-shaped flowers used in leis. There are a lot on the market that are two-toned. Plumeria plants have chubby branches and large leaves, and they are impressive shrubs or small trees when grown outdoors in U.S. Department of Agriculture Plant Hardiness Zones 9 through 11. Elsewhere they make interesting container plants. About seven plumeria species are native to Central America and the Caribbean, but they now grow in tropical and subtropical areas around the world, and many hybrid cultivars exist.Propagating PlumeriaPlumerias are propagated primarily from cuttings. Cuttings can stay alive for a long time after being taken; so plumeria growers can ship or transport them for trade or exchange. (I send fresh cut stems, cut day of shipping. So let them set on a shelf for a week to dry out before planting. T cut end need to ‘heal over’ before planting) If leaves are present clip them off leaving just a few on the apical, or upper tip, end of the cutting. Dip the cutting's freshly cut end into a rooting hormone preparation that contains a fungicide. Label the cutting by writing its name on the bark with a permanent marking pen. Please wash hands after handling. You can buy the rooting hormone at your local garden shop. I highly recommend its use!!!!Planting the CuttingPlumeria needs a rooting medium with excellent drainage or the cut end will rot. Regular potting soil is good, but adding some perlite to the mix will promote drainage. Use a 5” by 8” deep pot. Place the cutting in the middle of the pot, and fill the area around it with the soil. Be sure the soil is packed firmly around the cutting. Leave 1 inch of space at the pot's top. Stake the cutting to keep it from falling over if you need to. Water the planted cutting thoroughly until the water comes out the pot's drainage holes. Let the soil dry out before watering again.Rooting the CuttingA potted plumeria cutting needs a warm spot where it receives sunshine if the area's climate is cloudy or cool. It requires partial shade if the location's climate is hot and dry. Its soil temperature needs to be warm, not hot for rooting to occur. A great sign of roots is growth of new leaves at the cutting's tip.Additional informationWHEN THE CUTTING OR PLANT GOES DORMANT IN THE FALL, THE LEAVES WILL DROP. In the spring, new leaves will reform. These can grow to 15 feet or taller. Once the cutting is fully rooted and forming new leaves, I usually snip out the very tip. This forces the plant to form branches. Then you get a nice compact plant. I do sell multiple branched cuttings, just ask. You can find more information on line. Just google: plumeria. PLEASE BE AWARE, I DO NOT HAVE CONTROL OVER YOUR GROWING CONDITIONS. THE PLANT OR CUTTING YOU RECEIVED IS HEALTHY AND STRONG AT THE TIME OF SHIPPING. WITH THIS STATED, I CAN NOT ISSUE REFUNDS IF YOUR PLANT OR CUTTING DIES. IN SOME CASES, I MAY BE ABLE TO SEND A REPLACEMENT FOR 5.00 SHIPPING
