Carol as I stated befor seeds do not come true to the plant, this is a good place to learn about the seeds.

Doris glad you posted that so many people fall in the trap that they will get the plant from seeds and very small chance you will. I say think about a man and woman producing children unless identical twins no 2 are alike!!! to get true from seed would take a life time of secure breeding or if science comes in to play but we are not there yet for sure.

Hi, everyone.

Well, Thanksgiving Day is behind us. Shoppers behaved badly in retail stores yesterday. Gladly, I did not get involved in any Black Friday activities, save for work from 2:30PM to 10:30PM. We had no crowds at the liquor store, just the regulars who come in every day for their daily ration of their poison of choice. Next hurdle: Christmas and New Year, then I'm off on my cruise. I can't wait for that.

Last summer, our next door neighbor complained to me that her desert rose never bloomed. When I looked at it, I realized that this was a collection of 6 or 7 cuttings stuck in a large plastic pot with minimal drainage sitting in a saucer that retained water. How the whole thing did not rot on her is beyond me. Having been produced from cuttings, there was no caudex in sight anywhere, but she doesn't care for those. Anyway, we repotted the plants in a terracota pot with good drainage and we started giving the poor thing some fertilizer. That plant had not seen anything resembling fertilizer since the Kennedy administration. Well guess what, it is currently in bloom and my neighbor is in love with it again.

Hey, I also notice our friend Nancy (Happy_1) has joined us. Hidey-Oh, Nancy.

Take care, all.
Sylvain.

All ebay sellers, except Adenium_ko, sell pink seeds. Ebay doesn't seem to care that they blatantly lie.

Pink is fine!

I am getting a nice assortment of pale yellows from adenium_ko "New Yellow" seeds.

Yes, you get what you want from plants, and don't get overloaded with plants as happens with seeds! But there is no one reliable, in my thinking, on ebay to get plants from. Three in USA, expensive, but you get high quality. I'll list growers in a couple of days. Khwarunee, in Thailand, has gone out of business, due to the floods. boooooo.

This is Valentine Rose. A huge, heavy bloom

Mike, I'd be interested in seeds if you could just put them in an envelope and mail them to me. Do adenium come true in seeds? I'd love some of the doubles.

They do not come true from seed, but having seeds from a good source helps...
