Growing Plumeria in Pots for Easy Moving in Austin

Plumeria (frangipani) thrives in a 10‑inch pot with rich, well‑drained mix. Bury roots so only 2 inches of stem is below soil. Full sun, regular water, good drainage. In Austin winters, keep in a freeze‑free spot with east/south exposure. It will bloom after a few years.
