Lucky you Mikly. Your Plumeria's look good. Mine haven't dropped their leaves.

Hi Alex.....my Plumeria's all except one of them have dropped their leaves, but they are beginning to wake again. You will surely have more luck to get them blooming than I as you get far more heat and sun than we do here.....good luck with them...

I don't think mine will bloom this year Milky. Delonix said I should really feed them this summer. I also have to put them in bigger pots and move them....they will be too big to bring into the house next year.
What is the temperature in your greenhouse?
How old are yours?

Alex.......The area I overwinter them in is triple insulated and I keep it to about 10/12 degrees....My eldest is 6 years old which I grew from seed, and now stands about 5 and a half feet high. It has branched but not flowered yet even though I feed it regularly through the growing period. I have 2 cuttings, that Delonix kindly sent through to me, which are growing well and healthy, and anothe cutting 3 years old. I have also started a new growth from seed last year.

You are one patient person Milky...good for you. I hope you get great results soon.
I will check the area I'm planning for them to spend the winters and see how cold it gets. Thanks for the info.

Alex.....Well I keep trying....You will probably have more luck than I because of your beautiful Greek sunshine...so much hotter than we get here....but from the tips that Andy has given me, provided they can be sheltered from cold winds and above a few degrees during the winter you should do just fine....Good luck with them.
