No, it is best to avoid fertilizing Plumeria during the dormant season. The plant is not actively growing during this time, and fertilizing can stimulate new growth, which may be susceptible to frost damage in colder climates. Resume fertilization in spring when the plant begins to actively grow again.

During the dormant season, reduce watering frequency to avoid overwatering. Allow the soil to dry slightly between waterings, ensuring the roots don’t sit in consistently wet soil. Overwatering during dormancy can lead to root rot and other fungal issues. Observe the plant’s water needs and adjust watering accordingly based on environmental conditions.

The dormant season for Plumeria typically occurs in late fall to early spring, when temperatures drop and daylight hours decrease. During this time, reduce watering to once every 2-4 weeks, depending on the climate. Stop fertilizing to allow the plant to rest. Protect Plumeria from frost by moving potted plants indoors or using frost blankets […]

Yes, you can propagate Plumeria from cuttings during the dormant season. Take cuttings from healthy, mature stems and allow them to dry and callus for a few days before planting. Rooting hormone can be used to improve the success rate of propagation. Keep the cuttings in a warm, bright location and water sparingly until new […]

It is normal for Plumeria to drop some leaves during dormancy. Monitor the plant’s water needs and avoid overwatering. Maintain good air circulation to prevent fungal issues. As long as the stem and branches are healthy, the plant should produce new leaves when it emerges from dormancy in the spring.
