Frangipani Care and Related Garden Notes From An Orchard

Frangipani or Pagoda Tree now loses leaves and will soon bloom. Propagation by cuttings is straightforward if soil is open and well drained. Use terminal growths. overgrown trees should be cut back to induce vigor. Roots must be healthy to yield strong growth and later abundant flowers. The plant is prone to Corn Ear Worm. DDT sprays may help but control remains challenging. There are several varieties, with creamy yellow centers and pink forms. Sclerotium fungus affects many herbaceous plants. symptoms include wilting and rotted stems. Prevention focuses on destroying diseased plants, space and light, and sulfur sprays for soil-borne threats. Portulaca thrives in sunny beds with well-prepared soil and sandy seed mixes. sow thinly and water lightly, flowers bloom mid-morning to mid-afternoon, providing bold color in hot weather.
