The only one I have has been blooming since Sept. It's in my sun room and the over night temps should shut it down but it still wants to add more flower buds. It has lost most of its leaves and looks rather sad except for the flowers. :?

I have some question, Dennis:
About the leaves,
-did they get infected by brown spots before falling off? If so try to spray with fungcide
-Might be spider mites, I usually spray them with Kelthane 200EC(contains Dikofol), dont know whats available in your country, but if dont have many adeniums I would suggest you to 'blast' them with 'water cannon'
But they dont kill the plant instantly from my experience
Good luck...Dennis

One grower told me if the temp are under 45 degrees, it will drop their leaves and go dormant. During the cold spell the sun room was under 45 degrees for that week. And before that, it was in the greenhouse and got down to mid 30's. I was late on moving it to a warmer place. Before that, the leaves were very green and healthy. :idea:

Lovely!

Adenium are some of my favorites... you can always count on them for "architectural" interest along with those great flowers.

Thanks Dan, wish I could have contribution in fulfilling your GH with adeniums. For now I dont have any seeds available but some are making seedpods. If you are interested please PM me your address so when they ripe I could send some :D

Cheers
