As always, great advice from Hetty!

The only thing I would add is to treat it "as if newly rooted cuttings". Which means water once thoroughly and don't water again until after four baby leaves get big. If the feeder roots were slightly damaged, it may not have the ability to absorb excess water..yet until new feeder roots get established.

You can mist the stem to prevent dehydration.

tarev said:Hello kbuntu, I think your plant will just slow down a bit in growth but not go totally deciduous as it does here. I have seen Plumerias in my homeland where our temps are in similar range as yours. Plumies there do shed some leaves but for the most part not go totally leafless as it does here.

I will follow though Hetty's advise to trim down the leaves and Gigi's advise to water sparingly till new leaves form again.

Thank you tarev & GigiPlumeria. Yes, I did cut the rest of the leaves. Will definitely give an update in a month or so. uhhhh so excited!!!

Thank you.
