 Pictures of Plumeria growing in Arkansas | |
Like citrus, Plumeria is not indigenous to Arkansas and must be brought in for the winter. These also get to be very large TREES. My large 7 foot ones are actually small considering they get to be 30 feet when grown in the ground. I have 18 that range in size from 4ft. to 7ft., most are around 6ft wide and in 15 to 30 gallon pots. I also have 15 rooted cuttings and around 80 seedlings. These along with the 24 citrus plants, 4 fig, 1 sago palm, 3 4ft hibiscus, 6 1ft hibiscus, 3 4ft dwarf Cavendish banana, and 16 orchids, MUST come inside for the winter. Winter storage space is at a premium to say the least. Its a good thing that Plumeria can be overwintered bare root to save space.
I have a few plants blooming now and thought you would like to see them. Each has a different scent but they are all heavenly.
