This chapter guides you through harmonizing your Plumeria care practices with the subtle shift in the rhythm of nature, ensuring a seamless transition into autumn’s tender hold.

1. Watering: The Softening Flow

3. Disease Prevention: The Shield of Vigilance

• Rationale: The mellowness of fall can sometimes carry whispers of fungal tales. A vigilant shield against potential fungal companions is a protective embrace.
• Practice: Attend to any signs of fungal diseases, a timely intervention that ensures the Plumeria steps into fall with health and grace.
