Can Plumeria be pollinated by wind?
No, Plumeria is primarily pollinated by insects and cannot be pollinated by wind. Unlike plants with lightweight, airborne pollen, Plumeria pollen is relatively heavy and sticky, making it less likely to be carried by the wind over significant distances. The plant has evolved to rely on insect pollinators, such as bees and butterflies, to transfer […]
