Hetty is right I agree , Plumeria can send out flowers first before leaves, it is happening in my plant. I got this plumie as a stick in winter, and following all the guidelines generously given here and in other different forums, I took my time really babying this stick, stick as she is, it did give me some flowers as is shown on the photos.

Seeing their natural tropical habitat in the Philippines, they do take tons of heat from the sun but there is also extreme humidity and rainfall.

Knowing I cannot duplicate that kind of humidity here, I really have to be mindful of the temperature. That is how my little plumie stick is growing here. Oh, plus that good fertilizing regimen that Hetty has suggested sure works. Now my challenge is, hopefully I can make this little gal go into its winter hiatus and grow back cycle safely. Big Grin
