Whats the best soil for plumeria repotting? Get the right mix.
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

Oh, honey, you wanna know about plumeria repotting, huh? Well, I ain’t no fancy gardener, but I’ve had these pretty things around for years. They sure do brighten up the place, smellin’ all sweet and lookin’ so colorful. Now, about that repottin’… it ain’t rocket science, but you gotta do it right, or those plumerias will be sadder than a hound dog in a thunderstorm.

First thing’s first, you gotta get the right time. Spring, they say, is the best. When it’s gettin’ all warm and sunny, that’s when you wanna do it. Just like when I’m plantin’ my taters and beans, gotta wait till the frost is gone. Same with them plumerias, they like it warm. They don’t like to be messed with when it is cold, they get all sad.

Now, you gotta have a good pot. And the dirt, oh, the dirt is important! You can’t just use any old dirt. These plumerias, they’re kinda picky. They need that special dirt, the kind that lets the water run right through. Like when you’re washin’ clothes and the water goes right out the bottom of the tub, that’s what you want. If the water just sits there, oh boy, those roots will be madder than a wet hen! They’ll rot, and then your pretty plumeria will be a goner.

You can buy that potting soil, they call it. It’s that compost stuff, you know. Don’t use the dirt from your garden, no sir! That’s too heavy, too thick, and it might have bugs and weeds. Plumeria needs very good drainage. We don’t want no nasty things in there with our pretty flowers, do we?

  • Get that potting soil, the kind they sell at the store.
  • Mix it up real good.
  • Don’t use regular garden dirt!

Some folks, they like to mix their own dirt. They get all fancy with it. They say you can use that peat stuff, and some potting soil, and then some compost, and even some sand, the coarse kind. Mix it all up, like you’re makin’ a big ol’ cake. But I just buy mine, it’s easier. And those plumerias seem to like it just fine. This will encourage fast drainage. They say it is very important for plumeria.

And the pot, well, it’s gotta have holes in the bottom. Big holes. So that water can run right out. You can use them clay pots, or them ceramic ones, they’re real pretty. I like the colorful ones, makes the porch look all cheerful. Some people just use them black plastic ones, that’s okay too, I guess. But I like pretty, what can I say? Just make sure it’s bigger than the old one, so those roots have room to grow. Plumerias will grow in poor soils, but we don’t want that.

Now, when you’re ready to repot, you gotta be gentle, like handlin’ a baby chick. Loosen up the dirt around the edges of the old pot, real careful. Then, kinda tip it over and ease that plumeria out. Don’t go yankin’ on it, or you’ll hurt those roots! Shake off some of that old dirt, but don’t go washin’ them roots or nothin’. Just get the loose stuff off.

Then, put some of that new dirt in the bottom of the new pot. Set that plumeria right in there, and fill in around it with more dirt. Pack it down a little, but not too tight. You want it to be snug, but not like you’re packin’ a suitcase for a long trip. And they need some water, then you just need to water it good. Give it a good long drink, till the water comes out the bottom. The ideal soil mix for repotting plumerias is a carefully balanced combination of texture, organic matter, nutrients, they say.

After that, just keep an eye on it. Give it some water when the dirt feels dry. Don’t let it sit in water, though. And give it plenty of sunshine. They love that sunshine, just like me sittin’ on the porch on a warm afternoon. If you do all that, your plumeria will be happier than a pig in mud. It’ll grow big and strong and give you lots of pretty flowers. You just wait and see.

Repotting plumeria is not hard work. Spring is the perfect time to repot Plumeria, they say. It might be a little work, but it is worth it. That’s all there is to it, really. It ain’t hard, just gotta be careful and give those plumerias what they need. They’ll thank you for it, I promise. Just remember to be successful at maintaining plant health and vigor. Now go on and get to repottin’! And don’t forget to enjoy those pretty flowers when they bloom.

Oh, and one more thing, don’t be afraid to talk to your plants. I always talk to mine. I tell ’em they’re pretty and that I’m proud of ’em. Some folks say it’s silly, but I think it helps. Plants got feelings too, you know. They need a well-draining, slightly acidic to neutral soil. Maybe they will grow better if you talk to them. Who knows? I sure don’t. But it can’t hurt, right? Now, you better get along and go play with your plant. That plant need your love.
