What is your storage temperature and lightning?

Hey darkman. Ideally I would like to keep them in the low 50's F but for now it will be the coolest room possible until I can set up something in the barn to keep it cooler but not get to freezing. I Dont give them any lighting. I'm trying to keep them dormant. The few I have in the greenhouse will slow down but still grow a little.

So they can go as low as 35 without having serious issues and will start growing after the temps warm up. Part of the induced dormancy is the defoliation?

I would not let mine get that low.32 would cause damage for sure but 35 might cause some black tip. I try and stay above 40. Lower or no light levels and cooler temps trigger the dormancy. Removing the leaves lowers the stress and keeps the storage area cleaner since they will fall off anyways. Some people who grow them in the ground will dig up, completely bare root and strip all the leaves then store in a cool dark area. Come spring they will plant back in the landscape and they take off like they never got moved. Very similar to how I and some other store bananas.

Uk's plumeria specialist lives close to me here.

He sells plants and seed.

Do search for plumeria uk, if he doesn't ship seed outside uk and you really want something let me know.
