Adenium obesum, also known as the "Desert Rose", is a beautiful flowering succulent plant that is native to Africa and the Arabian Peninsula. It is a popular plant for gardeners and collectors due to its unique appearance and easy-to-care-for nature. Here are some growing tips for Adenium obesum from seed:
Seed preparation: Before planting Adenium obesum seeds, it is recommended to soak them in water for 24-48 hours to soften the hard outer seed coat. This will help the seeds to germinate faster.
Soil: Adenium obesum prefers well-draining soil that is rich in nutrients. You can use a mix of cactus soil, perlite, and sand to provide the plant with the drainage it needs.
Planting: Plant the Adenium obesum seeds in small individual pots, burying them about 1 inch deep in the soil. Water the soil immediately after planting to help the soil settle around the seeds.
Watering: Adenium obesum is drought-tolerant and prefers to dry out between waterings. Water the plant thoroughly when the soil is completely dry to the touch. Avoid overwatering, as this can cause root rot.
Light: Adenium obesum prefers bright, direct sunlight. Place the pots in a south-facing window or under a grow light for at least 6-8 hours a day.
Temperature: Adenium obesum prefers warm temperatures and is not frost tolerant. It is best to keep the plant at temperatures between 65-85°F (18-29°C).
Fertilizer: Adenium obesum requires a balanced fertilizer that is high in phosphorus. You can fertilize the plant once a month during the growing season with a fertilizer that has a 10-30-20 NPK ratio.
Repotting: Adenium obesum can be repotted after it has grown a few sets of leaves. Use a well-draining soil mix and a pot that is slightly larger than the previous one.
With proper care and attention, Adenium obesum seeds can germinate and grow into beautiful, healthy plants that will provide you with years of enjoyment.
