The last one.

Thanks for any input.

PL,
Its a very nicely shaped plant you have. That container appears to me to be large enough for your plant. I am concerned about how small and young the leaves look at this time of year.

I would recommend that you raise the soil level in the container. To do this I prefer to raise it from the bottom up rather than just adding soil at the top. If you slide the plant and root ball out of the container and add about an inch of soil. Test fit and then add more if needed. Then add soil around the sides so you can give your plant some more room to grow roots. You also can inspect your plant's roots for any potential problems such as being root bound, high water retention, ant nest/hollows in the root ball taking up space, etc. I like to use crushed rock to top dress the container.

Aways steer clear of using drip saucers or pans which may hold water and If the container's drain holes are not in direct contact with the ground then I like to use a wick to help water drain out of the bottom of the container.

If you have the opportunity to take some pictures of the root ball once you slide it out please post. Hope this helps.

Hi kms2,

Today, I did what you suggested. I don't think that my plumeria has roots rotted (please see the picture). I think it's a very good news. I noticed that the soil at the bottom is a little bit moist. But, the soil is so loose like grains. The roots look healthy and are bound. Usually, I put the pot on the pot feet. I hope I didn't add too much soil at the bottom and left only about an inch or 1 1/2 '' of the pot rim. I added a little bit of fungicide dust to the soil. I'm not sure whether it is a good idea. But, my plants have been having problem with fungus. I let her sip a little bit of water because it's late in the evening. I am going to give her more water tomorrow morning. I hope this will solve the wrinkled stems problem in a few weeks.

Thanks so much for your help! I appreciate it a lot.

The combination of the added soil.

This is how she looks now.

You are welcome. Nice work. Let's wait and see if it helps. I think it will based on your picture of the roots. It looks like they needed some more room. You should see some positive results in about a week or so. The rest of your garden looks very nice as well.

Hi kms2,

I would like to thank you for your help. The wrinkled stems are about 80% to 90% better. When I squeezed the stems with my palm, they are firm (not soft anymore). I am very happy about it. I want you to know that I appreciate your help a lot. Thanks again.

You are welcome. I am just happy we have a place to learn and share.

This is how she's doing this year. She's very healthy and started having some flowers and inflos. All of this I want to thank the_first_kms2(8/9).

Oh wow. that's great to see it's doing so well. You are very welcome.
