Here's another.

And another.

Lonnie,

That is awesome! Did you hand pollinate them or did the insects pollinate?

How fun to have your own seeds to plant up.

Lonnie, that is so great! I tried to hand pollinate but did not have success. Has the adenium in the first picture produced seeds for you before? Just wondering if they will produce flowers like that..unless it is grafted? Good luck!

Laurie

I didn't hand pollenate these, it's all natural.
They were purchased from Lowes or HD a few years ago.
I have one that looks like Super Concubine, a pink, red, and a yellow/red that just barely opens that have seed pods. I doubt that I'll plant these, so I'll have seeds in the near future. Once they mature I'll offer the seeds to new members.

Lonnie

Ahh, Lonnie! If you are offering seeds to new members, I'd really love to be on that list! I've been trying to find someone here that would be willing to help me get started on my first adenium seedlings but haven't had any luck. I've always been "too late to the party" and I'm having trouble ordering seeds from overseas since I don't seem to be getting emails back from the sellers!

Kara

Kara,

Your first on the list!!!!
Lonnie

Ahh, thank you so much!!

I'm new to GardenWeb so I'm not really sure what to do next! Should I send you an email? How does this work?

Lonnie, I also have 4 seeds pot on one plant, I don't know if I'll plant them.

Jan

Kara,

Once the pods mature, I'll PM you with my address and have you send me a SASE. I'll send you several seeds from the different plants. All are single flowers and no guarantee to colors. I do have doubles and triples, but they are not setting close to these, so I would guess they will all be single blooms.

Lonnie

Hi Lonnie and Jan:

If you all don't have any other takers on some seeds I wouldn't mind taking a few off of your hands. :) Let me know...

Laurie

Laurie,

I'll pm you when they're ready.

Lonnie

I'll let you when the seeds are ready Laurie.

Jan

Ahh, sounds good! Thank you so much (:

Thank you!

Jan,

Where did you get those pots & are you using gritty mix?

Lonnie

Lonnie, I use 60% Lanscaping mix ( pine bark + sand) + 20% perlite + 20 turface, bought from John Deer company, for the pot I bought from https://www.hummert.com/product-details/7353/villa-low-bowls , they are light but very durable in the sun.

Jan

Lonnie just found these pots on wayfair.com

Lonnie

once a pod has reached mature length (stopped growing) how long do you guys notice before they crack open?

Here is an updated pic of one seedpod.

Lonnie

I have finally gotten seeds from this DR. There were only 27 seeds, and would like to keep a couple. PM if you're still interested.

Lonnie

Do you cut the wings off and if so how far down the wing do you cut?
