Wait for end of Spring for your area, before you try new cuttings again. Not the time to start any plumeria right now. They are heading to sleep and root growth will be much harder due to colder conditions.
kk, Reading your story about your plumeria, the mistake there on the one you have on the back room was watering it when it was still dormant. It is normal for it to shrivel while dormant, but got to wait for at least one viable new leaf growth, before you can resume watering. That waiting period is so variable, and needs your utmost patience as you wait. Plumeria and patience...they go together a lot.
Don't feel so bad, it took me three years to understand how to grow Plumies, almost gave up on it, but thanks to the Plumeria forum, it helped me understand it better.
