I was walking my dog about a week ago and saw my neighbor cutting down his mature plumeria tree. After chatting it up for a few minutes, I asked if he didn't mind me taking it off his hands. He had no objections and just like that I jumped into the amazing world of plumerias.

I already delved deep into videos and even lurked in this forum the past few days. Making sure I start off on the right foot. Here is where I am at:
- Cuttings are about 3 feet in height
- I removed the leaves
- I am in the process of letting them callous

Here is where I need help:
- Should I put root hormone on it now or right before I plant?
- I live in southern California. It is generally 70s-80s this time of year. Is this acceptable weather for growing?
