Plumeria Cutting Advice

Hey

<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

Currently I am located in Michigan Zone 6B. I recently purchased the following cuttings:

Dwarf Pink Singapore Plumeria Cutting - 4 growth tips
Kimi Moragne Plumeria Cutting - 2 growth tips

Jeannie Moragne Plumeria Cutting - 3 growth tips
Slaughter Pink Plumeria Cutting - 3 growth tips
Singapore (obtusa) Plumeria – 22 inches > and multiple growth tips
Aztec Gold Plumeria - 22 inches > and multiple growth tips

Rose Red Plumeria - 1-2 Tips growth tips

Charlotte Ebert Plumeria - 3 Tips growth tips

Kevin's Red – 2 grow tips

3 Unknowns

I'm in over my head – but nothing I can do about this now but move forward

Plants will be outdoors in summer and indoors winter. The problem I am thinking about is… summer is almost over here – I worry that the cuttings may have problems rooting/survive through the winter. Any advice? I am especially worried about the Singapore since they have a tough time rooting. I've never rooted large cuttings or multi-tip cuttings – so not sure how they compare from my usual small single tip ones.

I plan on dipping the cuttings in Clonex solution (never used before). Then placing them in a 1 gallon pot with perlite and cactus mix and hope for the best. I would really LOOOVE to find clear plastic pots to see the roots develop – no such luck oh well! Open to creative solutions

Thanks!
