The hardest part is finding the seeds. Also note that while plumeria is not difficult to grow from seed, the grown plant itself may not possess the traits of a parent. Therefore, many people prefer to use cuttings. Plumeria seeds are not easy to find in catalogs. But you can collect seeds from growing plants or buy them online. Read our article to learn how to grow plumeria from seeds.

Steps

1. 1 Open the pods and remove the seeds.
2. 2 Prepare the soil for planting the plant.
   • Make a mixture of two parts plant soil (no fertilizer) and one part perlite. Stir the mixture.
   • Wet the mixture with water. It should stick together, but no water should drip from it.
3. 3 Fill your prepared plant pots with the mixture.
4. 4 Use your finger to make seed pits in the soil.
5. 5 Place the seeds in the holes with their wings up.
6. 6 Compact the soil slightly, leaving a piece of the winglet on the surface.
7. 7 Keep pots warm (above 15.5 ° C) and sunny.
8. 8 The soil in the pot should be damp, but not too wet. The seeds should germinate in about twenty days.
9. 9 After the plants have two leaves, transplant them into separate pots.

Tips

• Pink and multicolored plumeria will have a wider variety of seed shapes.
• While seed-grown plumeria may not look like its parent plant, it can nevertheless be very beautiful.
• It will take three years for the seed plumeria to grow into an adult plant.

Warnings
