Adenium Obesum Triple Gardenia Aromatic

5 Seeds

To seed Adenium 'Triple Gardenia Aromatic' (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 seed coat, which can help improve germination rates.

2. Choose a Potting Mix: Use a well-draining soil mix, such as cactus or succulent soil, to ensure proper drainage and prevent waterlogged roots.

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 airflow and reduce the risk of fungal infections.

4. Watering: Keep the soil lightly moist but not waterlogged. Mist the surface to maintain humidity, which is essential for germination. Once the seeds sprout (usually within 2-4 weeks), reduce watering to avoid excess moisture.

5. Temperature: Maintain a warm environment, ideally between 75-85°F (24-29°C), to encourage optimal germination. Using a heat mat or placing the pots in a bright, sunny location will help maintain the right temperature.

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

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

With proper care, Adenium 'Triple Gardenia Aromatic' seeds will grow into a beautiful plant with fragrant, creamy white flowers, adding a sweet scent and vibrant color to your garden or home.
