Adenium Obesum Golden

5 Seeds

To seed Adenium obesum 'Golden' (known for its stunning golden-yellow flowers), follow these steps:

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

2. Choose a Potting Mix: Use a well-draining soil mix, like 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 them apart to avoid overcrowding and allow for air circulation.

4. Watering: Keep the soil lightly moist but not soaked. Mist the surface regularly to maintain humidity for germination. After the seeds sprout (usually within 2-4 weeks), reduce watering to avoid over-watering.

5. Temperature: Maintain a warm environment, ideally between 75-85°F (24-29°C). Use a heat mat or place the seeds in a warm, sunny spot to encourage faster germination.

6. Light: Provide bright, indirect light for the seeds. Once the seedlings emerge, gradually expose them to more direct sunlight. Avoid strong midday sun until they are more established.

7. Transplanting: After the seedlings grow strong and the weather is consistently warm, transplant them into larger pots or into the garden once the frost-free period has passed.

With proper care, Adenium obesum 'Golden' will grow into a beautiful, vibrant plant, producing gorgeous golden-yellow flowers that brighten any garden or indoor space.
