Adenium Obesum My Rainbow

5 Seeds

To seed Adenium obesum 'My Rainbow' (a variety of Desert Rose), follow these steps:

1. Prepare the Seeds: Soak the seeds in warm water for 12-24 hours to soften the seed coat, which helps improve germination.

2. Choose a Potting Mix: Use a well-draining mix like cactus or succulent soil to prevent waterlogging and ensure good root health.

3. Plant the Seeds: Gently press the seeds into the soil about 1/4 inch (0.5 cm) deep. Space them apart to allow for good airflow and growth.

4. Watering: Keep the soil lightly moist, but avoid over-watering. Mist the surface occasionally to maintain humidity, which is crucial for germination. Once the seeds sprout (usually within 2-4 weeks), reduce watering to avoid excess moisture.

5. Temperature: Keep the seeds in a warm environment, ideally between 75-85°F (24-29°C). A heat mat or a sunny location will help maintain the right temperature.

6. Light: Provide bright, indirect light for the seeds. After sprouting, gradually introduce the seedlings to more direct sunlight, avoiding harsh midday sun until they are strong enough.

7. Transplanting: Once the seedlings are large enough (after a few months), transplant them into larger pots or your garden when the weather is warm and frost-free.

With proper care, Adenium obesum 'My Rainbow' seeds will grow into a beautiful plant with vibrant, multicolored blooms, adding a burst of color and beauty to your garden or home.
