You need a bit of sensitivity when caring for and especially watering frangipani or plumeria. The houseplant doesn't like it dry, but it also doesn't tolerate waterlogging. What you need to consider when watering.
How should you water frangipani?
Watering frangipani correctly means watering regularly in summer without causing waterlogging. Start reducing the amount of water in October and stop watering from the end of November until spring. The humidity should be high enough and the leaves should remain dry when watering.
Watering frangipani in summer
In summer, frangipani is watered regularly so that the root ball does not dry out. Excess irrigation water must be poured off immediately.
Do not water the frangipani while it is resting
From October onwards, the watering quantities will be significantly reduced and will be stopped completely from the end of November. The frangipani needs a rest period of four to six months to gather strength for the formation of its flowers.
In winter it is only watered when the trunk has become completely wrinkled.
However, the humidity should not be too low to prevent pests. Put out water bowls.
Tip
You should always water plumeria so that the leaves are not wetted. This prevents fungal diseases from occurring. It's better to water at the bottom of the trunk.
