Hi Rashell,
Thanks for posting pics. What a lovely pot your newly bought plummies are in. Now what can be eating the leaves is a mystery to me. I love your determination with trying to succeed in growing plumeria. It seems they can be difficult. My potted one did not bloom for me this year. The leaves are starting to die and the plant is entering dormacy. One of the ones inground has started to grow blooms but may not succeed due to our change in weather. I'll have to snap a few pics and show you. Anyway, wish I could be of more help to you my friend. Did you use good draining soil and perlite to your soil mix?

Hey pinkdamsel missed ya! Where has everyone been anyway!? Christmas shopping?

Thank you! xoxo

The following images are from my first plumeria. After seeing the blooms in person I have to keep trying until I succeed! After I moved the first one died, now I can't get another one to grow. The ones I have now are still losing leaves 'cause of the dang bugs.

PS. i used the same pot I used the first time. Crossing fingures.

Very nice! Same color as mine!! Doesn't it just smell so good! Mine has starting losing its leaves, too. Getting ready for winter-I NEEED to put it in a bigger pot! It is so top-heavy! I can't wait to see what it does next season!

Nice pics you have Rashell. Yes, don't give up on plummies! Those too are the colors of my blooms from my potted plumeria that DID NOT BLOOM this year. Now that makes the three of us having/had the same color. Must have been relatively common variety of plumeria?
