Adenium Obesum Triple True Luxury

5 Seeds

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

1. Prepare the Seeds: If the seeds are fresh, you can plant them directly. For older seeds, soak them in warm water for 12-24 hours to soften the seed coat and improve germination.

2. Choose a Potting Mix: Use a well-draining, light soil mix, such as one made for cacti or succulents. This ensures good drainage and prevents water retention, 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 room for growth and airflow.

4. Watering: Keep the soil lightly moist, but not soggy. Mist the surface occasionally to maintain humidity. Avoid overwatering, as Adeniums prefer slightly drier conditions once the seeds sprout.

5. Temperature: Keep the seeds in a warm environment, ideally between 75-85°F (24-29°C). Using a heat mat or placing the pot in a warm area helps maintain optimal temperatures for germination.

6. Light: Provide bright, indirect light. Once the seeds sprout (usually in 2-4 weeks), gradually introduce them to more direct sunlight, but avoid harsh midday sun until the seedlings are stronger.

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

With proper care, your Adenium obesum 'Triple True Luxury' seeds will grow into a stunning plant with luxurious, multi-colored flowers, making an eye-catching addition to your home or garden.
