How do I plant the Plumeria stock?

I used miracle grow garden soil. I put root hormone were it was cut. Put out in the summer heat and kept watering it. It rooted fine. Had all flowers this year. Smell amazing and look amazing. Each flower lasted 4 to 5 days. Flowered the entire summer. My neighbor brings hers in for winter. Wraps incandescent Xmas lights around it for heat. Needs full sun and heat.

I have a grey thumb, and my stocks are growing AMAZINGLY! Get a small, regular size plastic planter (~1 GAL) that can drain well, and add potting soil. Dip the bottom tip of the stalk in root hormone, stick in soil, pack soil down... water until water exits holes of pot at the bottom. Place in full sun. I live in Texas heat, and I've kept mine outdoors. I watered mine every 2-3 days when I could see that the soil was dry. When you spot new growth (little budding leaves that look like devil horns), your lil fella is producing roots, and you should prepare to transplant to very large container or garden. Look around on the internet for tips. I found Lucky Bamboo Expert on youTube was helpful, and the info on plumeria.org was invaluable. I'm so proud of my 4 guys, and I'm excited to see them mature. I started mine around July, and they have produced small blooms throughout the summer. Go for it!

I use a combination of Miracle grow potting soil and peat moss. They need to be well drained, more die from being too soggy. They need to be placed where they can receive lots of sun. It is suggested that you place your cutting about an inch or two into the soil and press the soil down tight around the cutting. I have found they will do better in a larger pot and mine have grown about 2" to 3". Best to let them go dormant in the cooler weather, it is normal for them to drop their leaves as the days get shorter. The cuttings I got from Hawaii are thriving and I am proud of them.

All I did was stick the stock in the dirt, but instead of planting in the ground I instead use a small plants pot and plant the stock in it, once it matures than I will transfer into a bigger pot. I use a moisture soil and water twice a week, it works for me, I can see little sprouts coming out from the top. Hope this helps...Fyi I'm not an experts., just someone who loves flowers:)

They come with potting instructions. I planted the stock in Miracle Gro cactus, palm and citrus soil in a 6" pot. Watered very well. Did not water again until the soil dried out. I plan to repot them to a larger pot later on. I have read they will maintain to the size of pot they are planted in. All four of mine are doing very well.

The Plumeria come as an 8 inch long stick and about 1 inch in diameter. I just inserted the Plumeria stick into the soil in a large clay pot about 4 inches deep. 5 of the 6 sticks are showing signs of growing.

I had a similar experience. Since you put them in the refrigerator to keep them in their dormant stage, the best thing you can do is to plant them as soon as you can get a shovel into the ground. Plant them initially below the freeze line 8 inches down in composted soil. In late February early March, remove 4 inches of the soil in order to make sure they do not have to hard to put up in the spring. When you see them coming out of the ground in late in April,fill the trench in slowly with loose compost. When you see the sprigs come up and provide plenty of compost, you will feel excited and even more motivated to care for them. Good luck. Mr. P I had a similar experience.

ANY plant I've put Schultz on produces BIG,beautiful blooms. I am not familiar with desert roses & plumerias, but if they are flowering plants, the Schultz Bloom Plus should produce lovely blooms!

They will ship you a plant. Mine actually had a little pomegrante growing on it!

Hello. I planted them in potting soil from the home depot, About a half inch deep. But It should be noted that i didn't receive the correct seeds from the seller, and I have no idea what the plant i have is.

Just make sure it is well moistened. A soak for a short while is good. Then plant to the top of the root ball. Make sure it has lots of room to grow as it will try to take over eventually, and it grows fast.

About the Datura? Just soak the seeds in clean water overnight, and then plant them. They have given me no trouble at all. Good luck, Viktoria

There were instructions with the seeds on how to plant them but I don't remember if there were any instructions on how to grow them inside. sorry

I recommend Miracle Grow potting soil. I fill the wick columns with Miracle Grow, then I place about 1" to 1 1/2" of Miracle Grow over the rest of the Grow Box. I add a 1 1/2" layer of Black Gold (worm dung) and then finish filling the Grow Box with Miracle Grow. DO NOT USE THE FERTILIZER that came with the grow box. In the two grow boxes I tried this in I lost more plants and replaced more plants. In the grow box where I did what I told you, I've not lost a single plant. My plants are going great. I would also mix in some Marigolds around your tomatoes, cucumbers, etc. to help keep the bugs away. Good Luck! I recommend Miracle Grow potting soil.

None...I threw them away. Is not worth it unless you have the right bit for your drill or you may crack the plastic. Instead purchase a plastic spike that you attach to the bottle and comes with a terra cotta spike that you insert in the ground. It works wonderful and your plants never dry out and yes, it does cost a little more.

Hello,Yes I went to their website and found "some" instructions: http://japanesemaplesandevergreens.com/planting-pruning-and-care/Just get it in the ground ASAP. I purchased two of these vines and they are doing fine!

So it works like this use the hormone, you can plant in direct sunlight. Keep dirt moist for about ten days. The plant should have rooted by then. Mist about every Monday, Wednesday, Friday. Do not make it wet but damp.

You don't plant them. They're air plants and they don't need soil. You just put them in clear bowl or terrarium.

First, soak the seeds for 2-3 hrs. Start them indoors in 2" pots. Use a "seed starting mix." Make a dimple in the well-watered soil. Lay the seed on its side in the dimple. Cover the pots with clear plastic to create humidity. Place in a well-lit, bright, but not direct sunlight. Mist daily depending on whether the seed casing looks damp or not. They will pop up in about 3 to 5 days! I planted 11 seeds, but only 5 made it. I have been growing mine under fluorescent lights. These instructions came with my seeds ordered from Amazon.com. For further instructions, search the Internet.

I did, about a week later. Bought an orchid clay pot, Oncidium soil mix and orchid plant spikes. All are sold a Home Depot. My orchid is still going strong. Lots of new growth.

So far, only one of my plumeria had flowers (very surprising, flowers before even leaves!). The package it came in said the cutting should be red but it was pink & orange. Still gorgeous though. It's only been a month since I potted my cuttings and all the others just have leaves so couldn't tell you if they will be the color the packaging states.

camellia seeds are planted at september-october keep the seeds in water until they crack(should take couple of days) after they are cracked pat them dry gently plant the seeds:fill half or 3/4 of your empty container with soil put the seeds( for a small sized container like a cup, put 1 or 2 seeds in it) on the soil. then cover the seeds 1/2-1 inch with prefarably turfed soil . press the soil firmly to make sure the seeds are planted good water right after planting. it takes time to grow them from be patient:) the tecnicalities are not very important when you love and give attention every plant will grow beautifully. have a nice day!
