    This process can be done, but it will take a lot of time and patience. You will want to cut only a branch or two off at a time if it falls in to the walkway. prune one day each week until it is out of the walkways. It will take on a new shape and be quite unsightly for a while, but with prober pruning and shaping, it will change direction and look wonderful again after a few seasons.

    Prune all of the black parts out. I would wait to do this until there is not more threat of frost for the best results.

    I would definitely recommend keeping it inside until the temperatures remain above 50 degrees out. I am seeing an indication of new growth, so now would be the time to start watering again. Just make sure to water only when the top of the soil is completely dry.

    I would suggest fixing it when you replant into a larger container to avoid harming the roots. Leaning it back will likely crack the root system and kill the plant.

    When you go to repot it, just plant it at a slight tilt to offset the angle of it now.

    Look at the undersides of the leaves. Are there little orange spots? From the front, it looks like it might be Plumeria Rust. You can read all about it and see some very good pictures of it here: https://www.ctahr.hawaii.edu/oc/freepubs/pdf/PD-61.pdf
    If there are no orange spots, it could be Sixspotted Spider Mite. Look for webbing on the leaves and between the leaves and the stems. You can read more about it here: http://ipm.ucanr.edu/PMG/PESTNOTES/pn74141.html

    It is possible to 'stump' or cut down a plumeria and still have it grow back to be beautiful again-someday!
    If you are seeing green when doing a scratch test-great sign.

    It is just a matter of wait and see what cold damage was done to the roots.

    Give it time!

    I found this link that may be a good read and show you a recovered Plumeria.
