These Adenium seedlings germinated after four days, and now they are two weeks old. they are pinkish /white and I am not sure if they will survive because the lack of chlorophyll. What have I done wrong? Is it a mutation? Will they survive? Thank you in advance.

I love these little guys, but unfortunately most do not survive. The only advice I can give is to baby the mess out of it. No direct light--just filtered bright indirect, bottom water it, and pray. I have heard that if they survive to a certain size that they can be micrografted to a root stock or another Adenium, but I have never seen this work successfully anywhere.

Good luck! Welcome to NGA! Keep us posted on your growth

Edited to add: Feel free to pop over to the Adenium forum and feel your way around. Lots of very knowledgeable individuals there.

I have grown something like 400 seedlings over the last couple of years and have seen these mutations. None of the ones I had survived. I agree, the lack of chlorophyll will not sustain them.

Many thanks for your prompt reply, JamesAcclaims ! Not good news about my seedlings I will definitely keep you posted on my new growth (If there will be one)...

Many thanks Rainbow. How unfortunate is it to have the first two Adenium seedling to be mutation.

Oh my! Your very first were mutants? Hey, chin up...your next ones should be okay from then on. I have a pair of seed pods growing right now. When they ripen I would be glad to send you seeds.
