Frangipani is a tropical flowering plant that loses its leaves in winter and regrows in warm spring. It produces very delicate and attractive flowers, the colors are very attractive, and some varieties of flowers look like scattered eggs.

Very few people would choose to sow and cultivate frangipani. Generally, they would use cuttings to propagate. It was also very simple to sow and propagate with seeds. However, from sowing to flowering, frangipani would take about two or three years, while frangipani propagated with cuttings would take one or two years to bloom.

The flower color of a seed-grown frangipani may vary, but the flower and the mother plant are the same in a cuttage frangipani, but I still like to reproduce frangipani by sowing.

You can buy some frangipani seeds directly online, it is best to choose to cultivate in the spring and autumn season, just bought seeds should be sown as soon as possible, if put for a long time, its germination rate will decrease.

I have a special way of sowing and reproducing seeds. The seeds can be soaked in water for eight hours, then some moist tissues are prepared, and the seeds are placed on top and placed in a box to keep the tissues moist.

After a day or two in moist paper towels, take out the seeds and sow them in moist sandy soil. The soil can be selected by mixing peat soil and perlite in a ratio of 3:2. This soil will have good water retention capacity, air permeability and drainage.

You can choose some relatively small plastic pots for seeding and reproduction, with large drainage holes at the bottom, and it is enough to put three seeds in each small pot.

Before sowing, the soil should be completely wet. The seeds should be laid flat on the soil surface and covered with a layer of soil 2 cm thick. During the curing process, the soil should be kept wet, the temperature should be kept at about 20 degrees Celsius, and the surrounding air humidity should be kept high.

You can put it in a big box with a lid on the top and put it in a warm and ventilated place to keep it moist. You can spray water regularly and occasionally open the hood to ventilate. When planting, the hood is to keep the air humidity high and warm, creating a greenhouse effect.

The seeds of frangipani take about seven to thirty days to germinate, depending on the freshness of the seeds. The fresher the seeds, the faster they germinate. Generally, small buds can be seen in about two weeks.

When the seeds of frangipani have just sprouted, there will still be some shells left. As the leaves grow, water should be gradually reduced. The maintenance environment should be kept ventilated, otherwise it is easy to breed mold.

After the frangipani seedlings grow out, the top leaves will have a layer of skin on them. To let them fall naturally, if they don't fall naturally, you need to take them down, otherwise these seedlings will rot and hang up easily.

Later maintenance of frangipani seedlings to keep the soil moist, slowly increase the light, there is appropriate scattered light every day can be, and so on seedlings grow to about seven centimeters, you can transplant to a larger pot.

Just transplanted frangipani seedlings do not bask in the sun, can be raised in a ventilated shade place for two weeks, then slowly see the light, gradually reduce watering.

After two weeks, give the plumbergia plenty of light, more than six hours of direct light a day, so that the plumbergia can grow well and will promote the growth of healthy roots.

After that, as the frangipani seedlings continue to grow tall, it is necessary to constantly change pots until it grows to more than one meter high.

Frangipani comes in a variety of colors, the most common being white, yellow and pink. It is a very easy to care for plant, and the flowers have a charming fragrance, so it is very popular.

There are many friends who like to use branches to propagate frangipani. You can cut a branch about 30 cm long directly, cut it obliquely at the bottom, properly dip it with a little flour, and then cut it into the sandy soil of the teachers 'college. Keep it in a ventilated and bright place. Regular watering can promote rooting and germination.

Frangipani cold tolerance is relatively low, the minimum maintenance temperature in winter should be maintained at more than five degrees, after the autumn weather becomes cold, it is necessary to control watering, spring and summer season can keep the soil moist, but to avoid pot water.

To promote frangipani flowering, give organic liquid fertilizer once every two weeks in spring and summer, or give some potassium dihydrogen phosphate solution to help bloom.
