Comments (28)tedb4, you are very welcome!!! I did get your email, (sorry, it wouldn't let me reply without coming to GW) and I mailed your seeds out yesterday. I hope you get them soon! 14 of 15 arabicum seeds sprouted from this order - they are already happy green babies! The obesum are so small compared to the beefy little arabicum! I'm getting good results from the obesum too though, these seem like high quality seeds....See MoreResponse from Adenium_Ko about ordering.
Comments (19)Well, my seeds arrived this afternoon!! For those of you that are interested it took exactly 7 days for them to arrive. He states 14 to 21 days on his site because of customs but I guess they didn't hold the package for long. Also, keep in mind if you order from him that he is 8GMT (I believe) which is 12 hours ahead of EST if that makes it easier. He only keeps a translator on the weekdays so if you email him Friday evening to Sunday evening he probably won't get back to you until at least Monday (his time) His process is that he takes order (direct and Ebay) all week but he has to have the money for your order by Tuesday of each week because his quarantine officer only comes every Wednesday (his time) to do an inspection. Then he ships all orders Wednesday afternoon....See MoreOrdering seeds from Mr Ko Question
Comments (15)Hi trace, hmm I will prob end up sowing a few of all of them, or do you think best to sow more of just one or two varieties? Just put some mini greenhouse shelving into the tent to create more space aswell as running both light in one tent, same idea as Martin really. I would prefer a tent really that's not as tall but much wider lol so there's more floor space rather than adding shelves. Seeds from rinoa at present don't look too good, only signs of a few germinating out of 40 or so seeds sown....See MoreMR. KO --- Seed Order
Comments (13)When I first started growing these Adeniums. Two people whom had been growing them close by had said to me " Bet we know what you will end up getting, 'Pink' ". This is what they had experienced and was quite true. In some cases w dishonest sellers it still could be. With all of the seed grown trees that I have started and have had bloom to date. I have had 2 which you could call Pink. The other I do not have a photo of on this device. It is a dark Pink w white throat. These next photo's will show the "Pod parent bloom" and next one my seed grown tree's bloom. "Double Black Madonna" My Seedling of this: First Photo is of the same Pod Parent bloom above. Dbl.BM "Have A Dream Most Beautiful" My seedling of Pod Parent bloom above: "Excellent Lover" My seedling from seed of above Pod Parent: I am quite happy with what has resulted with these. I think going into growing these, knowing the possibilities or lack there of. Nothing is expected, so there is no reason to be disappointed. Just for the sake of showing just how we cannot take a first bloom on a tree to be the same in the next blooming cycle. This is my "Triple Twilight" tree's bloom in the first year (grafted tree). This next photo is a bloom from same tree this year. Just shows how unique and surprising at the same time. It also shows just how far the hybridizers of these have come.
