Plumeria leaf drop refers to the condition where plumeria plants shed their leaves, often as a natural response to environmental stressors or seasonal changes. While it can be part of the normal life cycle of the plant, especially in preparation for winter dormancy in cooler climates, sudden or excessive leaf drop can also indicate underlying issues. Factors such as overwatering, underwatering, extreme temperature changes, inadequate light, and pest or disease infestations can stress the plant, leading to leaf drop as a symptom. Proper diagnosis of the cause is crucial for addressing the issue and ensuring the health and recovery of the plumeria plant.
