    Plumeria, commonly known as frangipani, is a genus of flowering plants in the Apocynaceae family, native to tropical and subtropical regions of the Americas. Renowned for their vibrant, fragrant flowers, plumerias are often associated with tropical landscapes and are popular in ornamental gardening.

    Key Characteristics:

    • Foliage: Plumeria plants have large, leathery, and elongated leaves that are typically arranged in a spiral pattern at the ends of branches.

    • Flowers: The flowers are five-petaled and come in a variety of colors, including white, yellow, pink, red, and multicolored combinations. They are highly fragrant, especially in the evening, and are commonly used in making leis in Hawaiian culture.

    • Growth Habit: Plumerias are deciduous shrubs or small trees that can grow up to 25 feet tall, depending on the species and growing conditions.

    Cultivation and Care:

    • Climate: Plumerias thrive in USDA Hardiness Zones 10-11, which include tropical and subtropical regions. In cooler climates, they can be grown in containers and brought indoors during colder months.

    • Light: They require full sun to produce abundant blooms. At least six hours of direct sunlight per day is ideal.

    • Soil: Well-draining soil is essential to prevent root rot. A mix of cactus potting soil and perlite is often recommended.

    • Watering: During the growing season (spring and summer), water the plant thoroughly when the top inch of soil feels dry. Reduce watering in the fall, and keep the soil almost dry during the winter dormancy period.

    • Fertilization: Apply a high-phosphorus fertilizer every 2-3 weeks during the growing season to encourage blooming.

    • Pruning: Minimal pruning is needed. Remove dead or damaged branches in late winter or early spring before new growth begins.

      We always choose overnight or express shipping options. Once shipped, most orders arrive in 1-2 days in Canada and the USA. Depending on your location, shipping might take longer. Occassionally, customs clearance might take an additional day.

      We will gladly accept returns for a refund, provided the items and plants have not been damaged, propogated, or repotted.
