rooting usually takes hot from below and warm at night. If you can reproduce this indoors, you can jump-start plants starting in March/April. as leaves appear, you will need to place in light. Rooting takes several months so starting in late spring is the norm.

Dustin, you may want to join the Yahoo group Aloha Plumeria Forum. The adminstrator, Mimi, sends out very inexpensive cuttings ($3-$5 each plus postage) several times a year. Her best recommendation for starters is Celadine as it's tough and adaptable, and easy to root.

I would recommend you stay away from reds and rainbows as they can be the toughest to root. I've been trying to root a rainbow for six months now, using bottom heat, lights and misting with no luck. If you're looking for something specific there are a few very good American sellers on ebay, like 1-stop-aloha and bloomingplumerias, that sell rooted plants as well as cuttings.

Thanks for the info tdogdad.
Celadine sounds like a good start jandey. I will check out the sources listed. Thanks

HEy Dustin,
Jandey's right. I just got a box of cuttings from Mimi and I also agree with the suggestion to go with Celadine. I rooted my Celadine in less than a month using the egg rooting method. You can find some info here if you search thru the message archives but you will find TONS of onfo including pictures on the Aloha Plumeria Group. Mimi is exremely helpfull. Lets put it this way. I had pretty much given up all hope on ever rooting a plumeria cutting. I had never even had a bloom. Now, I have rooted over a dozen and a half and had inlfos on many!

Good luck, your in great hands here and also on the Aloha plumeria group!
