Just be sure your plants are in very well-draining soil mix, have bright light, and that they are not subjected to (prolonged) cold temperatures. That should/would eliminate root problems. Also keep in mind, plumeria that are dormant, or even those that haven't yet begun to grow new leaves and would be considered semi-dormant, don't need much moisture at all. Leaves and transpiration/photosynthesis dictate their need for moisture. That's the reason we don't water those plants that are being rooted. They can't utilize moisture and thus are prone to rot.

The reason it's so hard to lose weight when you get up in age is because your body and your fat have become good friends.
