I have 5 Plumerias that I purchased as noids about 6 years ago. They're all doing well but have never bloomed. They are pretty much all just 3-4 ft tall tall sticks with lots of tip leaves but leaves no side branches. I read somewhere that in order to bloom there have to be branches and I do have one that developed branches last year after the tip broke off when a strong wind blew it off a table.
I have 2 questions that I would be thrilled for someone more experienced to answer,
1. Is it true that they won't bloom if there are no branches?
2. Should I cut the tips off them to make them branch?
Thye get full sun and fertilizer during the summer months, are potted in well draining mix and get watered at least twice a week once the weather goes over 80 degrees, less if it's cooler. I'm in zone 7a and they get overwintered inside at around 65 degrees. I have also tried giving them drenches once a month of an epsom salts mixture. Help, please?
