Hawaiian Yellow Plumeria Plant Cutting ~ Grow Hawaii

This is the second time I've bought these cuttings. I bought two yellow ones 3 years ago and they both rooted very easily, and my plants got big and flowered all Summer (the flowers smell amazing too), but this past February, we had a winter freeze in Texas, like we haven't seen in decades, and I lost all my plumerias. I was very sad. So I just bought another 2 in early July - one white and one yellow. I potted them up July 7th and they are already showing progress and are putting out leaves, and it's only the 22nd. These rooted even quicker than the last cuttings. Also, the prices for rooted/established plumerias is through the roof at my local nurseries, so these cuttings are more than worth it and plumerias grow fast, so I don't mind start from the bottom and saving $30-$50. Love these cuttings. I only wish they had a wider variety of colors. I included a video of potting them up.

*update* It’s been about 6 months and after almost killing it and losing all the leaves, it’s back and growing strong. I have it in direct sunlight and only water when the dirt is completely dry and it is much happier! This was my first attempt at growing anything from a cutting. It took about 2 months before I had leaves, but it’s worth it. I can’t wait until it flowers!! I will definitely be ordering from them again

I bought 4 Plumeria's from multiple sources all around the same time. Planted them the same way with the mix of soil suggested and used rooting powder. This one got soft, shriveled up, and died with no roots forming at all. The other 3 are still solid but no visible growth. I got them in the fall which is probably not a great time to be rooting these plants. I still have hope for the other 3 but no growth whatsoever after about 3 months. I live in Ohio and keep these plants indoors on a plant stand with other flowers that are doing great.

I was excited to see seller is on the Big Island of Hawaii where my son lives ! I spent over a decade in Hawaii & I’ve loved plumeria plants for so long ! Wanted one for GA ! The plant looks healthy & ready to grow in the pot we prepared for her !

This arrived in July and has grown so much. I can’t wait to see it flower!

I actually contacted the seller after having this "stick" planted for over a month and nothing happening. They were quick to respond and give me some advice. As long as it wasn't getting soft, it was still alive and should grow... they were right! I bought this in August and didn't see much growth till almost Oct. Now I can practically see it grow daily. The leaves look great. I'm in zone 5 and this is definitely an indoor plant for me. I have it in my plant room with grow lights. Super excited for it to flower hopefully next year. I will definitely buy again from this seller if I decide to get another one in a different color.

I hope this roots, it was in a plastic bag in a cardboard box, no cushioning of any kind. It had to have been tossed around quite a bit since it was being shipped from HI to NJ. There was nothing else in the box other than the stick, no instructions at all.

Came in perfect shape. So far it seems fine but waiting for my first leaf. Shipping was fast, packaging was fine but no instructions lead me to the internet to learn more. Took 1 start for this, I think its important when selling & for success in growing its important to give the client the best knowledge without dissipointment. UPDATE: I have three leaves & flower buds. I really expected to wait a few years but am so excited its going to bloom so soon! It took its time to come around. 6/20/24 7/20/24 update... its blooming! Beautiful with a mild wonderful smell. thank you.
