How Do Plumerias Branch

In early spring, before the blossoms appear, prune the spindly or lopsided branches. Also remove broken, dying or dead branches. Cut each branch at a 45-degree angle approximately 2 to 3 inches above a branch junction. Two to three new branches will develop from each cut.

How do you get plumerias to branch?

Prime time for plumeria pruning is in spring, before new blooms emerge. This is the best way to encourage plumeria branching, as two or three new branches will emerge from each cut. Prune the plumeria a couple of inches (5 cm.) above the junction of two branches.

How do you prune plumeria for more branches?

Simply make a cut to remove the top branches. Only remove what you have too; don’t overdo it. Trimming the top off will encourage new branches to form on the side of the tree. Take a large branch that has three of four other branches protruding from it.
