I had asked on another forum maybe 2 weeks ago about seedlings with three cotyledons and if anybody knew what they would do since my experience in growing from seed is limited to cacti and a few other succulents. With cacti it made no difference but with some other plants I got true leaves that grew in triplicate rather than the normal pairs. One person told me that all their three-cotyledon adenium seedlings only produced paired leaves. So......I've got 5 adenium seedlings that came up with the three cots and right now four of them have three true leaves growing. This photo shows a seedling of arabicum "Desert Night Fork" sown on June 4 and you can clearly see the three true leaves coming in. The others are three seedlings of mixed Saudi arabicum sown May 28, two of which have three leaves, and one seedling of "Mixed Dwarf" arabicum also sown at the same time as the DNF and it also has three true leaves. I'll get photos of the others as they become more readily visible--right now it's easy for me to SEE them but they're still small and it's very difficult to get them to show in photos.
