Frequently asked questions
Red Frangipani
Why has it lost leaves but kept firm branches?
Frangipani can lose leaves seasonally. Keep roots draining and avoid frequent watering simply because the crown is bare.
Can I cut branches with bare hands?
Use clean tools and gloves; damaged branches release irritating milky sap. Keep it away from eyes and pets.
Will it flower throughout the year?
Flowering varies with season, plant maturity and light; an evergreen habit does not mean continuous flowers.
Can I keep the crown tightly clipped?
Repeated clipping may remove flowering wood. Plan the shape and time pruning around the plant’s flowering habit.
