Now, talkin’ ’bout plumeria cuttings, ya might wonder if them cuttings can bloom if they’ve already bloomed before, right? Well, lemme tell ya, ya can buy them cuttings, sure, but it don’t mean they gonna bloom right away. I heard folks sayin’ that sometimes them cuttings got them buds from the mother plant, and when ya plant ’em, they might give ya a flower right in that first year. But not always, I tell ya, not always.
Ya see, growin’ plumeria from cuttings is one way ta get ’em nice flowers without spendin’ too much. It’s real simple too. What ya do is cut a piece of the plant, let it dry for a bit, and then stick it in some good soil. With a lil’ patience and care, them cuttings can grow just as good as any other plumeria ya bought from the store. But, here’s the thing—just ’cause ya got a bloom once, don’t mean it’s gonna bloom again right away. Nope, sometimes ya gotta wait a bit. Them blooms, they like to take their time, just like me when I’m restin’ on the porch.
Let me tell ya the steps for gettin’ them plumeria cuttings goin’:
- First thing ya do, ya cut the plumeria, but don’t be usin’ no bloom booster fertilizer on them cuttings, no way. That stuff ain’t good for ’em right away.
- Ya let that cuttin’ dry out, sittin’ in a shady spot for about one or two weeks, just so the end of it can get all hard and dried up. That’s real important, ya know. If ya don’t let it dry out, it could rot or get sick.
- After that, when ya see it’s nice and calloused, ya can go ahead and plant it in the soil. Don’t need fancy pots, any ol’ container will do. Just make sure the soil’s good and drains well.
Now, I gotta tell ya, cuttings like these are real handy. They grow just like the mama plant, so if ya liked the flowers on the one ya cut from, ya gonna like these too. But remember, don’t go expectin’ blooms every year like clockwork. Even if it already bloomed once before, sometimes they wanna rest, just like how we take a break after workin’ hard. Patience, that’s what ya need when growin’ these plumerias.
Another thing, if the end of the cuttin’ is already hard, don’t go choppin’ it again. Leave it be. And when them flowers do come, oh boy, the smell’s gonna fill up your whole yard. Folks gonna be askin’ where ya got them from! They’re beautiful, sure, but they also need a bit of tender care.
So, in the end, can ya buy plumeria cuttings that already bloomed? Yep, ya sure can. Will they bloom again? Well, maybe, but ya gotta wait, let the plant do its thing. Just like how I wait fer the right time to harvest my vegetables. Patience is key, and with a lil’ luck and love, ya’ll have them beautiful blooms again. But don’t rush it, let nature take its course, and soon enough, ya’ll be enjoyin’ them flowers just like the first time.
