Wet the end of the plumeria stick about two inches (dip in water about 2 inches).
Stick in a jar of rooting hormone to coat the tip.
Bury in the potting mix (in a liner) a few inches deep.
Water once to soak, drench it. Then don't water for several weeks.
You are well on your way to rooting success from here.
