Plumeria Rubra Mango Bush

6 Seeds

To seed Plumeria Rubra Mango Bush (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 well-draining, light, and slightly acidic seed-starting mix. A cactus or succulent mix is ideal, as it provides good aeration and prevents waterlogging.

3. Plant the Seeds: Press the seeds gently into the soil, about 1/4 inch (0.5 cm) deep. Space them apart to allow airflow and prevent overcrowding.

4. Watering: Water the seeds lightly and consistently, keeping the soil moist but not soggy. Mist the surface occasionally to maintain humidity, which helps with germination.

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

6. Light: Provide bright, indirect light after planting. Once the seeds begin to sprout (usually within 2-4 weeks), gradually increase exposure to direct sunlight, but avoid strong midday sun until the seedlings are well-established.

7. Transplanting: Once the seedlings are large enough to handle (typically after several 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 Mango Bush seeds will grow into a beautiful plant with vibrant, fragrant flowers, making a stunning addition to your garden or home.
