Plumeria seeds
Our nice and generous member, Mr. Adnan has sent seeds of Plumeria last month. On the first of March, I have sowed the seeds and waiting for the germination.

Re: Plumeria seeds
I sowed 6 seeds in cups like yours on 11 feb. One has sprouted & is trying to pop out; others no signs yet.
Re: Plumeria seeds

Re: Plumeria seeds
Nooooooooooooooooo, pls shift your pots under full shade and at a warm corner of your garden or room, even window light is enough for germination. Seeds will take 4 to 6 weeks for germination.
Here is a photo of my seedling, it gave me blooms after four years.
Mr Adnan
I did not try plastic sheet ever and cannot say any thing. Have your seeds started germination? And what is percentage of success?

The plastic sheet germination procedure that you have adopted is good because it has given you 100% result.
The way which I have adopted gave me 50% success, so in future will try your procedure.
