There is a yellow plumeria that I've talked about here, it is on the lot of an empty house next to a pharmacy I use. I was there today and walked over to look - and smell. There were several long branches in the grass next to it and I grabbed one and pulled hoping it was broken off the tree. It was still connected but growing along the ground. I pulled a little harder and it broke off. So, I have that yellow I've been wanting with the powerful scent. I've got about a 3' section about 3in in diameter laying under the bananas in the back. It branches at the other end and has new leaves growing. Can I just stick it in some dirt? That's what I've done with the other ones I have but now I'm thinking perhaps I should let it callous first? Does that mean out of the sun and out of the rain?
