When You Get Your Plumeria

What you should know:

• We ship plumeria with the leaves cut off per requirements by the USDA
• Every plumeria is inspected for any signs of damage and insects
• We spray each plumeria with mineral oil as a precaution.

What you should Do First:

• Inspect the box and note or take photos if damaged
• Carefully Unpack, inspect your plumeria, if damaged in any way, take photos and notify Florida Colors Nursery immediately via email at info@floridacolors.com or phone 305-258-1086
• Soak the roots in water for 2-4 hours to hydrate your plumeria
• Pot in a 3 gal pot using well draining soil.
• Water your plumeria well for the next three days, then as needed. Plumeria do not like their roots to be wet.
• We grow all our plumeria in full sun. We suggest you place your new plumeria in full sun.
