Plumeria Rubra Raya Orange

6 Seeds

To seed Plumeria Rubra Raya Orange (a variety of Plumeria), follow these steps:

1. Prepare the Seeds: Plumeria seeds typically come with a papery outer shell. If the seeds are fresh, use them directly. If older, soak the seeds in warm water for 24-48 hours to soften the seed coat and help with germination.

2. Choose a Potting Mix: Use a well-draining, light seed-starting mix. A mix designed for cacti or succulents works well. Ensure the soil is slightly acidic and well-aerated for optimal growth.

3. Plant the Seeds: Gently press the seeds into the soil, planting them about 1/4 inch (0.5 cm) deep. Space the seeds apart to allow for good air circulation and root development.

4. Watering: Water gently but thoroughly, keeping the soil moist (but not soggy). Mist the surface regularly to maintain humidity, as Plumeria seeds require consistent moisture to germinate.

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

6. Light: After planting, provide bright, indirect light. Once seeds start to sprout (usually within 2-4 weeks), gradually introduce them to more direct sunlight to encourage strong growth.

7. Transplanting: Once the seedlings are large enough to handle (after several months), transplant them into larger pots or into the garden when outdoor temperatures are consistently warm and frost-free.

With proper care, your Plumeria Rubra Raya Orange seeds will grow into a beautiful, fragrant plant with vibrant orange flowers.
