Adenium Obesum Triple Moonlight

5 Seeds

To seed Adenium 'Triple Moonlight' (a variety of Desert Rose), follow these steps:

1. Prepare the Seeds: Soak the seeds in warm water for 12-24 hours to help soften the tough seed coat and improve germination rates.

2. Choose a Potting Mix: Use a well-draining mix, such as cactus or succulent soil, to ensure good drainage and prevent waterlogging, which can lead to root rot.

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

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

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

6. Light: Provide bright, indirect light for the seeds. Once the seedlings sprout, gradually introduce them to more direct sunlight, but avoid harsh midday sun until they are well-established.

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

With proper care, Adenium 'Triple Moonlight' seeds will grow into a striking plant with large, beautiful blooms in shades of white and soft yellow, adding elegance and color to your garden or home.
