I ordered it from Wayfair. Was expensive and when I opened it out popped a little Asian kid, which was a surprise. And their return policy sucks. Last edited by eDave; 07-18-2020 at 10:09 PM.. |

Called plunging, put smaller plumeria in pot in larger pot. Protects the roots in the hot desert heat. All my plumerias are in pots currently as they were all cuttings. Once they get more established and have built up their roots, I can likely put them directly in ground. Sometimes they require a shade structure for the first few years and wrapping their trunks in tinfoil to avoid burning. |

I didn't know one of the symptoms of COVID was turning into Martha Stewart.
If Lewdog asks me for the best China pattern to mix with Southwest decor next, I might have to revoke his CP Phoenix Meetup group. |

FYI on shipping. Was recommended that you cut all the leaves off and wrap in newspaper.

A friend gifted me a plumeria before his move. It’s called Penang Peach and smells like peaches when it blooms! It’s very small as he just bought it for $10 at Trader Joe’s.

Very cool. The closest we can get to plumeria blooms around here is orchids and they don't have nearly the color variety.

It’s getting close! End of February and March are good times for these. I’ve got cash on hand!
