Adenium Obesum Triple Amazing Grace

5 Seeds

To seed Adenium obesum 'Triple Amazing Grace' (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 hard outer coat and improve germination, particularly for older seeds.

2. Choose a Potting Mix: Use a well-draining, light soil mix, such as one designed for cacti or succulents. This ensures proper drainage and prevents root rot.

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

4. Watering: Keep the soil lightly moist, but avoid overwatering. Mist the surface regularly to maintain humidity, which is essential for germination. Avoid waterlogged soil as Adeniums prefer slightly drier conditions once sprouted.

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

6. Light: Provide bright, indirect light. Once the seeds sprout (usually within 2-4 weeks), gradually expose them to more direct sunlight. Avoid intense midday sun until the seedlings are strong enough.

7. Transplanting: After a few months, when the seedlings are large enough to handle, transplant them into larger pots or into your garden when the weather is consistently warm and frost-free.

With the right care, your Adenium obesum 'Triple Amazing Grace' seeds will grow into a stunning plant with triple-layered, vibrant flowers, adding a beautiful and unique touch to your garden or home.
