Plumeria Rubra Jeannie Moragne

6 Seeds

To seed Plumeria Rubra Jeannie Moragne (a variety of Plumeria), follow these steps:

1. Prepare the Seeds: If the seeds are fresh, you can plant them directly. For older seeds, soak them in warm water for 24-48 hours to soften the papery outer shell and improve germination.

2. Choose a Potting Mix: Use a light, well-draining seed-starting mix, such as one for cacti or succulents. This ensures good aeration and prevents waterlogging, which can cause root rot.

3. Plant the Seeds: Gently press the seeds into the soil about 1/4 inch (0.5 cm) deep. Space the seeds apart to allow for air circulation and healthy growth.

4. Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist but not soggy. Mist the surface occasionally to maintain humidity, which is essential for germination. Avoid overwatering, as Plumerias prefer slightly drier conditions once established.

5. Temperature: Keep the seeds in a warm environment, ideally between 70-85°F (21-29°C). A heat mat or placing the pot on a warm windowsill can help maintain the proper temperature for germination.

6. Light: Provide bright, indirect light. Once the seeds sprout (usually in 2-4 weeks), gradually introduce them to more direct sunlight, but avoid harsh midday sun until the seedlings are well-established.

7. Transplanting: Once the seedlings are strong enough (typically after a few months), transplant them into larger pots or directly into the garden when temperatures are consistently warm and frost-free.

With proper care, your Plumeria Rubra Jeannie Moragne seeds will grow into a stunning plant with fragrant pink and yellow flowers, adding vibrant beauty to your garden or home.
