Adenium Obesum Double Black Aventador

5 Seeds

To seed Adenium obesum 'Double Black Aventador' (a variety of Desert Rose), follow these steps:

1. Prepare the Seeds: Soak the seeds in warm water for 12-24 hours to soften the tough seed coat and improve germination rates.

2. Choose a Potting Mix: Use a well-draining mix, such as cactus or succulent soil, to ensure proper drainage and prevent root rot.

3. Plant the Seeds: Gently press the seeds into the soil about 1/4 inch (0.5 cm) deep. Space the seeds apart to allow for good airflow and to prevent fungal growth.

4. Watering: Keep the soil lightly moist, but avoid over-watering. Mist the surface regularly to maintain humidity, which helps the seeds germinate. Once the seeds sprout (in about 2-4 weeks), reduce watering to avoid excess moisture.

5. Temperature: Keep the seeds in a warm environment, ideally between 75-85°F (24-29°C), for optimal germination. A heat mat or a bright spot in your home can help maintain the right temperature.

6. Light: Provide bright, indirect light for the seeds. Once the seedlings sprout, gradually introduce them to more direct sunlight, avoiding harsh midday sun until they are well-established.

7. Transplanting: Once the seedlings are large enough (after a few months), transplant them into larger pots or into your garden when the weather is consistently warm and frost-free.

With proper care, Adenium obesum 'Double Black Aventador' seeds will grow into a striking plant with double-layered, deep black flowers that add a bold and dramatic touch to your garden or home.
