Plumeria Rubra Pink Sunset

6 Seeds

To seed Plumeria Rubra Pink Sunset (a variety of Plumeria), follow these steps:

1. Prepare the Seeds: If the seeds are fresh, plant them directly. For older seeds, soak them in warm water for 24-48 hours to soften the outer shell and enhance germination.

2. Choose a Potting Mix: Use a well-draining, light seed-starting mix, such as one for cacti or succulents. This helps with good aeration and prevents waterlogging.

3. Plant the Seeds: Gently press the seeds into the soil about 1/4 inch (0.5 cm) deep. Space them apart to allow room for root growth and airflow.

4. Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist but not soggy. Mist the surface occasionally to maintain humidity, which aids in germination. Avoid overwatering as Plumeria roots are sensitive to standing water.

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

6. Light: Provide bright, indirect light. Once the seeds sprout (usually within 2-4 weeks), gradually expose them to more direct sunlight, but avoid intense midday sun until the seedlings are well-established.

7. Transplanting: Once the seedlings are strong enough (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 Pink Sunset seeds will grow into a beautiful plant with vibrant pink flowers, creating a stunning addition to your garden or home.
