Once established (12–18 months), Plumeria is drought-tolerant and requires minimal supplemental irrigation in South Florida.
DROUGHT TOLERANT. Water only 1-2x per week during GROWING season (May-October). Reduce to monthly or ZERO during dormancy (November-March). Plumeria in South Florida requires LESS water than most people give it. Overwatering during dormancy causes stem and root rot — the primary failure cause. Allow soil to dry completely between waterings during growing season.
Solo e Fertilização
Fertilizer: High-phosphorus fertilizer (low nitrogen) — e.g., 10-50-10 or Plumeria-specific fertilizer
Schedule: May and August only during active growing season. High-phosphorus fertilizer encourages flowering.
