Submit Plumeria Pest & Disease Photos
Clear, permission-approved photos help growers compare real plumeria symptoms before they treat. This page explains what to send, what permission statement to include, and how submitted photos will be reviewed before they are used in the guide.
Important: submitted photos are not automatically published. Photos should be reviewed for permission, plant context, and diagnostic accuracy before they are added to an article.
How Photo Submission Works
- Use the checklist on this page to prepare your photo and notes.
- Include the permission statement exactly as written below.
- Submit the photo through the site upload form when it is active, or use the contact page to request submission instructions.
- The photo is reviewed for permission, plumeria context, diagnostic usefulness, and possible identification.
- Approved photos may be added to the correct Pests & Diseases article with credit and, when needed, cautious wording such as “suspected” or “representative.”
Permission Statement
Include this statement with every submission:
I own this photo and give PlumeriaCareGuide.com permission to use it on the website with photo credit.
What to Include
- Your name as you want the photo credit shown.
- Your email address so we can ask follow-up questions if needed.
- What you think the photo shows, if known.
- The plant part shown: leaf top, leaf underside, stem, tip, roots, rootball, cutting, seedling, potting mix, or whole plant.
- General location or region, especially for unusual pests, borers, bore worm, or seasonal problems.
- Whether the photo shows early symptoms, active infestation, treatment response, or recovery.
- Any confirmation clues: moving insects, webbing, orange rust pustules, frass, odor, soft tissue, root galls, visible larvae, or tray-wide seedling pattern.
Best Photo Set
- One wide photo showing the whole plant, tray, pot, branch, or affected area.
- One close-up photo of the symptom or pest.
- For leaf problems, include both the top and underside of the leaf.
- For root problems, include the pot, rootball, close-up roots, and anything found in the media.
- For stem problems, include the whole stem, close-up damage, and any cut surface if pruning was needed.
Highest-Priority Photos Needed
The highest priorities are scale insects, powdery mildew, spider mites and rust mites, root-zone pests, May/June beetles and grubs, plumeria bore worm or borer damage, bacterial disease examples, rot, and seedling problems. See the Plumeria Pest & Disease Photo Contribution Guide for the current priority list.
Submit or Ask First
Use the form below to send permission-approved photos and context for review. If you are unsure what to submit first, use the Contact Us page and include “Photo Submission” in your message.
How Photos Are Reviewed
Some photos can confirm a problem clearly. Others should be labeled more carefully as suspected, representative, or not enough information. The goal is to help growers make better decisions without turning uncertain images into misleading examples.
