Could be soil too wet, soil too sour, or fertilizer/salt burn? (or all 3).

Hi Brendan,
I'm pretty sure its not fertiliser burn as I've only applied some coffee grounds on 1 plant but the other is still affected. As for sour soil, if you mean acidic soil, then it can't be that either because I have more of a neutral soil. It is most likely wet feet though because they are in a greenhouse and I do water them quite frequently. Thanks for the help :)

Hi Nick - it reminds me of leaves that have water sprayed on them in the heat of the day - thereby burning them (sometimes liquid ferts left on the leaves can do this too)
It doesn't look serious - maybe too much water as you said..

check under leaves for little orange things ,, could be rust . Very common on most Plumerias grown here in wet tropics and could have been on plant when bought .

Both yours and Nicks May already have root rot - like to know if Nicks survived? Ive seen a few large plants around the sand belt like Bentleigh east facing north against the house under the eaves and in the ground - Drainage is the key - so DONT WATER it and spray some eco/white oil if any bugs under leaves - a friend planted one in 50/50 potting & orchid mix and looks great (also under cover)and has way reduced watering already so try that - if it doesnt survive use above advice next year with a new plant - Cheers

All of the above possible, but the plant is deciduous in winter, and lose the older leaves first. That's how all my in ground trees are starting to look now too.
