Plumeria [Plumeria spp.] Potted Starter Plant

Product Description Aloha! I’m the plumeria plant—also known as Frangipani—and I’m here to bring a little island magic to your garden. Famous for my sweet, tropical fragrance and lush clusters of vibrant blooms, I’m more than just a pretty flower. In Hawaiian culture, I symbolize love, beauty, and positivity, and I’ve been cherished in leis and celebrations since the 1800s. This listing is for rooted starter plants in 4-inch pots only! Looking for plumeria cuttings? Click here. I start out as a rooted cutting, and am allowed to grow in a 4" starter pot for at least 8 months before being offered for sale. Depending on the season, I may be fully leafed out, or, if it's fall or winter, I may arrive in my dormant "stick-like" form. Don’t worry—I'm perfectly healthy and this is completely normal! Once mature, I can grow anywhere from 3 to 30 feet tall depending on variety and care. My thick, leathery leaves form a whorled pattern around the tips of my branches, and when in bloom, I show off stunning flowers in shades of white, yellow, pink, or red that attract butterflies and bees. I thrive in warm, sunny weather and should always be planted in well-draining planting media. Though I may not bloom in the first year, give me time and sunlight, and I’ll reward you with unforgettable tropical beauty for years to come.
