My Frangipani,[cream with yellow centres and planted about 4 metres apart] were doing well: new leaves,flowers then grasshoppers made a mess of the leaves. Since then the end of the branches have rotted and are dieing off.
What can I do for them? They have been in the ground 3yrs.
I have bought a couple of the fancy new ones and do not want this disease to spread to them.

Plumeria prefer to be grown in the Sun and dont like a lot of water.
Black tip Fungus likes cool wet and shady areas, perhaps a raised garden bed in the Sun.
If it has to raining too much ( Send some down here ) for the next ones.

Have a look at the Link below and good luck with the new ones ....Cheers..MM.

Thanks MM
They are in the sun and one is in a raised bed. Normally they rely on rain and we had so much that that would be the problem.thanks for the link.

Send your rain this way.

We plant our frangis in the toughest, driest spot we can find and totally neglect them and they are thriving. We had to use a pick to dig the holes as it was so rocky and hard.

Good luck with them.
