The light pink variety is a popular choice for gardeners due to its attractive color and ease of cultivation. Here's a full guide on how to grow, care for, and reap the benefits of Plumeria rubra 'light pink':

Growing:

  1. Soil: Plumeria rubra prefers well-draining soil that is rich in organic matter. A sandy loam soil mix works well for growing plumeria.

  2. Light: Plumeria requires plenty of sunlight to thrive. It is best grown in a location that receives at least six hours of direct sunlight per day.

  3. Water: Plumeria requires regular watering during the growing season, but it's essential to avoid overwatering as it can cause root rot. Water the plant when the top inch of soil is dry to the touch.

  4. Temperature: Plumeria is a tropical plant that thrives in warm temperatures. It is recommended to grow it in an environment with a temperature range of 60-90°F.

  5. Fertilizer: Plumeria requires regular fertilization to produce vibrant and healthy flowers. A balanced fertilizer with a ratio of 10-30-10 (N-P-K) is recommended. Apply the fertilizer every two to three weeks during the growing season.

Care:

  1. Pruning: Plumeria requires pruning to maintain its shape and encourage healthy growth. Prune the plant during the dormant season (winter) by removing any dead or diseased branches.

  2. Pest control: Plumeria is susceptible to pest infestations, including aphids, mealybugs, and spider mites. Regularly inspect the plant for signs of infestation and treat it promptly using insecticidal soap or neem oil.

  3. Propagation: Plumeria can be propagated using stem cuttings. Cut a healthy stem at an angle and allow it to dry for a few days. Then, plant it in well-draining soil and keep it moist until roots develop.

Benefits:

  1. Aesthetics: Plumeria produces beautiful and fragrant flowers that are popular in gardens, as well as in floral arrangements and lei-making.

  2. Medicinal: Plumeria has been traditionally used in Ayurvedic medicine for various ailments, including skin diseases, fever, and inflammation.
