Anyone growing Plumerias? Where can you find these in Lahore? How easy is it for them to survive in Lahore weather?

One of the most easiest plants... in Karachi it grows in negligence.. many varieties are available here...

Easiest plant on the planet.I am growing a variegated one and a yellow flowering plumeria.Plant and forget.

plumeria is very easy to grow only protect it from frost in winters.i like only the pure white.the color never fades & the fragrance!

Yes indeed. I read up on Plumerias and it does seem they are very easy to grow from cuttings. I'll be hunting Lahore nurseries for a couple. Online nurseries in the US have some Plumeria cuttings you could kill for

Aykhan post the pictures of your desired Plumerias and I'll let you know whether they are available here or not...

Thanks Izhar sahib. I will be in Lahore this weekend inshallah and will attach pictures here soon.

And they are priced at around 50-80usd per cutting.Right ???

I think it varies with how big the cutting is, how many tips it has and what kind it is. The newer breeds are more expensive. Actually the highest price I saw was from a nursery in Hawaii asking $39 for cuttings of their newer breeds. Mostly anywhere from 7-15 dollars. The best deal is likely through auction on ebay.

Izhar check out this site and see if similar multicolored plumerias are available. http://www.plumeriatreasure.com/plumeria_1.htm
