Frangipani is poisonous in all parts of the plant

Like all dogbane plants, all parts of the frangipani plant contain a milky sap that is poisonous. It can cause symptoms of poisoning not only when swallowed, but also when it comes into contact with bare skin.

Frangipani is therefore not suitable for households with children and animals.

When caring for plumeria, you should always wear gloves so that no milky sap can get on the skin.

In summer, the frangipani likes to move to the terrace. It is important that he slowly gets used to the direct sun. Set it up so that children and pets are not endangered.
