Can Plumeria be pollinated manually?
Yes, Plumeria can be pollinated manually, a process known as hand pollination. Hand pollination involves transferring pollen from the stamen of one flower to the pistil of another using a small brush or cotton swab. This method is useful in controlled breeding programs to ensure specific parentage and desired traits in the resulting seeds. Hand pollination can also be employed in situations where natural pollinators are scarce or inaccessibility prevents natural cross-pollination. Hand pollination requires precision and care to prevent damage to the flowers and ensure successful fertilization.
