Pics of plumeria at the end of Winter under grow lights.

10 years ago

I have approximately 25 plumeria under grow lights in a basement room. None of them ever go dormant. They just keep growing throughout the Winter months. Here's 3-4 that I just repotted. They are looking pretty good. Some of the leaf tips are burned from being too close to the high intensity grow lights.

Thanks Mike. Do you have plumeria? How do you winter them?

Yes. I have about 30 right now. In years past I overwintered in the greenhouse. I moved to a new place last December. I dont have a greenhouse built yet so I cold stored them out in my barn. I some wrinkling on my smaller plants but all and all they did great.

Oh I did leave a couple including my Desert sunrise I posted about in my parents greenhouse.
