When I brought it home I re-potted it into a 14\" container. This is what I\'m using below: Soil: Miracle Grow Cactus Palm and Citrus Potting Mix (Fertilizer Analysis 0.06 - 0.02 - 0.04) Fertilizer: Miracle Gro Water Soluble Bloom Booster Flower Food (Fertilizer Analysis 15-30-15) I water when the first 2\" of the soil feels a little dry and use the fertilizer every 7-14 days per the instructions. I have an 3 in 1 soil tester and tested the PH level which reads 7 almost 8. From what I understand Plumeria plants like more acidic soil between 6-6.7 so I added some Espoma Organic Soil Acidifier to the soil to bring it down. To make sure there are no bugs I sprayed with Garden Safe Insecticidal Soap Insect Killer. I have provided some pics below and if anyone has any helpful advise I would appreciate it! |
