Can Plumeria grow in nutrient-poor soils?
Plumeria can tolerate a range of soil conditions, but it prefers well-draining soils with adequate nutrient content. While Plumeria is relatively adaptable, growing it in nutrient-poor soils can lead to slower growth and reduced flower production. If planting in poor soil, amending the soil with organic matter and applying regular fertilization can help improve the soil’s nutrient content. Additionally, the use of slow-release fertilizers can provide a steady supply of nutrients over time. Container-grown Plumeria should be planted in nutrient-rich potting mix to support healthy growth and flowering.
