Here is a photo of my babies from last winter.

I apologize for having to enter them one picture at a time. I've tried to figure out how to post multiples...

Here is one of my Arabicum seedlings. This is its 3rd summer and FINALLY these tykes are putting on leaves.

I will save other photos for later as this is probably getting photo heavy. I cannot wait until blooms.

You have some beautiful plants there, Ladylotus. I am sure that they will reward you with blooms soon.
It is tuff, especially when you have had them for a number of years.
I do believe that the sunlight hrs. makes a big difference as Brian stated in a thread of his.
Last year when things started to cool to a point I felt was risky for mine outdoors. I brought them in and with a couple weeks, a number of them produced buds. Subsequently aborted as they where not receiving as much sunlight.

Glad you posted photo's. All good whether in bloom or not.

I like the arabicum plant very much. It looks like octopus.
Very cute though. Don't you wish adenium grows faster?
Slow grow plant for sure.

I had some 2 years old seedlings, but only few inches tall and I don't see them growing taller anytime soon.

Ha ha...Marie, I do wish they grew faster so that I could have some gorgeous big adeniums with a full head of flowers like you. It seems the more often I walk over and look at them the less change I see.

It is so fun though to grow them and see the changes in caudex. One thing I have noticed is since I have put 1/2 manure in my mix my plants are really perking up.
