Re: Jim-Plumeria

Yes, you can, provided it is not too hot, so it will remain  dormant. 
Although, I have had a cutting that I forgot about.  It  had fallen behind some 
other plants, wasn't until recently when we had to  move the plant stand and 
all the plants that we found it.....it had grown  leaves, but was never 
potted....so they can survive a long time without  being potted. Of course this 
had the humidity, light and great  air circulation...which is why it 
produced foliage; but even in a cooler, dark,  dry place, they will survive over 
the winter for several months quite well.  Major concerns with cuttings are 
too cold and wet.  I would also  suggest not wraping it in plastic or such, 
let it breathe....paper bag or  burlap, etc. is best in my opinion.

Thanks  Noreen-mine is just a plain old Rubra-from Jim actually. It's now 3
years  old and getting quite unwieldy. I will take your advice on storing  
the
cuttings though. I really don't want to have to deal with them in pots  over
the winter. I'll just put them in the closet or something. Can they  stay
there inside? I don't have a shed. Just a carport, so they'd freeze  out
there.
THANKS!
