Adenium Obesum Black Swamp ( Desert Rose )

Adenium obesum Black Swamp, known as desert rose, a caudex plant with black flowers and a red center.

There is no pre treatment of the seeds required. 

The sowing takes place in plastic pots. The substrate used is either commercial cat litter on a mineral basis (no lumping litter), perlite or pumice (germ-free). Distribute the seeds evenly on the substrate. Cover larger seeds sparingly with substrate, fine seeds may remain on the surface. 

Then put the plastic pot in a zip-lock bag - with a pot size of 6 cm we recommend a zip-lock bag of size 120 x 170 mm. Put enough tap water in the zip-lock bag with a few drops of universal fertilizer so that a few millimeters of water remain after the substrate has been absorbed. Then close the zip-lock bag airtight - done! 

Further watering is not required as moisture does not evaporate through the squeeze bag. 

Location: partially shady on the windowsill or in a miniature greenhouse, during the day the temperatures should be around 23 - 28 C, at night a little lower at 20 - 22 C. The micro climate created creates ideal germination conditions.

Price is for 3 seeds.
