My plumeria is in pot and if it gets watered and it is outside and it is going to rain multiple days would it be wise to bring it indoors so it does not get to much water? Thanks.

I think the main key is well draining soil. They like water.... just not soggy feet. Good Luck!

Hello Jason2345, it will all matter depending on your current location, drainage and over all temps there. Is your Plumeria awake already? Does it have good leaves growing already?

In my area, as long as it is very warm to hot already with good leaves growing, it can take daily watering, since we get into zero rainfall for 6 to 7 months and our humidity levels too low here. So it needs as much water as it can. I do wish we have rains here at that time, but unfortunately it is our planting area limitation here.

In ideal locations with temps not going lower than 70F all day and all night, Plumeria can easily handle the rains. They actually love it, being tropical succulents.

Plumeria is not putting out leaves yet. Getting close though. Using cactus soil for my Plumerias they seem to do very well in it. thanks for the info everyone.

Wait for at least one leaf to show up and open properly. Delay watering till then. Just be very patient for now.
