Just thought I'd post a pic of my "nursery". These are all of my baby adeniums - all started around the end of April this year (4/24/16, I think). One of these days I'll make my husband happy and move them off of the pool deck to around the back of the house by my greenhouse. Rolling on the floor laughing I had to keep them up front while they were just wee little things, tho, so I could keep an eye on them! Whistling Most have outgrown the "wee" stage tho...

There are three that were started late January from some old seed I had from 2014 I'd forgotten about. Oddly enough, those three are much smaller than most of the rest of them. Not showing dwarf tendencies, just growing very slowly. Thezy seem to be picking up a little since I potted them up a month or so ago, though. I'm wondering if their retarded growth was due to the seed being so old - frankly, I was suprised they germinated, 4 of 6 germinated and I only lost 1 of the 4 because it didn't germinate "correctly" and just never grew - or because they just needed to be potted up and it took me forever to get around to it (or a combination of the two).
