Hi,
I have 5 plumeria plants that I grew from little sticks and move the pots inside and out every year. Only one has ever bloomed and the blooms were eaten by a green grasshopper! I am not sure what I am doing wrong, they get osmocote every spring, with a top dressing of potting mix with worm droppings mixed in and at least 9 hours of sun evry day when they are outside.

Any suggestions from you northern growers that might help me get these to bloom? Should I be using Epsom salts once a week in addition to the osmocote?
Life is a rush into the unknown. You can duck down and hope nothing hits you, or you can stand tall, show it your teeth and say "Dish it up, Baby, and don't skimp on the jalapeƱos."
