Growing Desert Rose From Seeds Begin starting adenium seeds by preparing a container with a well-draining growing medium, like a perlite or sand and soil mix. Place the seed in the growing medium, just covering them with the growing medium. Water from below daily and from above once every three days until the seedlings appear. Place the growing tray or container on a heating pad and keep the temperature of the growing medium at between 80 and 85 F. (27039 C.). Your desert rose plant seeds should germinate in one week, if the seeds are fresh. If they are not fresh, it may take longer (if at all). Once the seedlings appear, water only from below. In about a month, the seedlings will be large enough to transplant to a permanent container. Adenium Desert Rose Growing Tips First, remember that Adenium plants are native to regions with poor, gritty soil and hot, sunny climates. You can’t expect the plant to thrive in overly moist soil, in a site with limited light. They are also not frost tolerant and will succumb to a freeze if exposed. The plant will not survive long if exposed to temperatures below 40 degrees F. (4 C.) but will thrive in temperatures reaching up to 90 degrees Fahrenheit (32 C.). Desert rose succulents like bright light, so a southern window exposure provides enough sun for the plants to flourish and bloom. In the garden, choose a sunny location that has some protection from noonday sun, as this can scorch the foliage. Soil is very important and should have a mixture of cactus soil with gritty sand or lava rocks for good drainage. Desert Rose Plant Care The one thing that will kill these plants quickly is improper watering. They are succulents but are used to rainy periods during which they grow, followed by a dormant, dry period. Match your watering practices to these needs for best success. Keep soil moderately moist in spring and summer, but reduce watering in fall and especially winter when the plant is dormant. Fertilize with a d

Perfect
Never tried growing my own I followed a you tube and it worked perfectly. 1. Soaked seads 48 hrs or until sink, use double layer pan poke holes in top pan cover bottom with rocks, soak rock well, add layer of cactus soil soak then another layer of black cow soak, the place seeds spaced out then take cactus soil and sprinkle with you hands like you would sugar on a cookie lightly if you see any part of seeds sprinkle a small amount on the ones you see then spray more water on top. Then put into a screened porch or a full sun window but don't put outside until they start and it growth with 6 leaves then part shade part sun after they are about 4 inches tall transplant then you can put into full sun. So easy.

Planted on the 2nd of March
It's been close to 30 days and I have seen two plants grow. I was actually sent 10 seeds. This is a very slow growing plant. Hope I can see more but not expecting it.
