Grafted Adenium obesum flowers

Post by hlchang »

Some flowers of Adenium obesum have double layered petals. These branches can be grafted onto plants with poor quality flowers.
Here are some .Image

Stunning! I'm not much a fan of those multi-layered adeniums but I admit, some look fantastic.
Do you have any nice singles, striped and darker ones?
Please keep on posting. :)

That last one is a real stunner! 15 years! I can see a swazicum or boehmianum ancestors in that one.
Hmmm, I know they grow very fast, particularly in SE Asia. Here in Europe we need some good 3 or more years to get a similar looking plant that needs only one year in SE Asia.
Thanks for posting these.
