Can the frangipani tree fruit be planted?

1. Can it be planted?

The frangipani tree will grow fruit after being planted for a period of time. The fruit skin is very smooth, green with a little black, and is about 20 cm long. Once its outer skin is broken, a cotton-like sac will be exposed, and inside will be seeds like melon seeds. So its fruits cannot be planted directly, but the seeds inside can be planted.

2. Planting Method

It does not produce fruit every year, so growing it from seed is not common. If this method is used, the seeds need to be removed from the fruit, sown on a sand bed sprayed with water, and then covered with a very thin layer of fine soil. Finally, cover it with a film and it will germinate in about 7-15 days.

The cutting method is often used for planting. Cut a 20 cm long branch from the tree branch and place it in a ventilated place for 2-3 days. Wait until a protective film grows at the cut before planting. If conditions permit, you can also apply some wood ash or sulfur powder and finally insert it into the sand bed. Then place it in a well-ventilated semi-shaded place, spray water appropriately, and expose it to sunlight appropriately after 20 days of cuttings. It will take about a month to survive.
