The cafe's Adenium are in full bloom.

I wish there were my DRs, but I can drool over them. I admire them whenever we go to dinner. Photos of four different tree. All at least three feet tall. Look at those three red trees.

    Wow! I would be asking them for a cutting or a seed pod then! Wish I could see a third Adenium for sale here in the UK, but I plan to go to a National garden show next month in Birmingham so I shall certainly be searching the exhibitions and trade stands. I did spot one for sale in garden centre at an astronomical price and a second one at this show several years ago....so it's not beyond hope!

    Our regular waitress told us the owner brought them from home, had been growing them for 20 years. He's got 7 of them out front of the cafe. These are the best at the moment. He hadn't been there to question him. he's got 3 very nice euphorbias there as well.

    My big girl is in full bloom. I've had her about three years. Best year ever.

    Puglvr1, your tree is beautiful. Where are you located? I'm in Palm Harbor. I do have one red tree, that I bought last summer. She has some buds now. I'll post photos when she blooms.

    Really beautiful. What an abundance of flowers. The single blooms are really beautiful as they look up at you instead of some of the multi petal ones that you have to look up at them from beneath. Marlene AU

    Puglvr1, This is such a outstanding tree of yours. Never get tired of looking upon it. Such a wonderful specimen.

    How long have you had this one now?

    Thank you, Marlene. I don't have any multi petal, but some of my seedlings might be. Too early to tell. I love them all. All colors, all shapes. I'm just waiting for all of my plants to get as large as those at my favorite cafe.

    Puglvr1 and Cynthia. I love to look at lovely trees as yours. It gives me hope for the future

    Puglvr1, wow....your plant is the best in bloom. Wow...I can't get enough of it.

    So beautiful....so eye candy.

    Cynthia, your plants too so beautiful, but if you trim them, your plant will look like Puglvr1....

    Thank you for sharing.

    Thank you all for the nice comments!! I truly appreciate them :o)

    rcharles, I think I've had it for about 10-11 years now...purchased it as a small plant from Home Depot.

    dear puglvr1


    I just bought a couple of mango trees about 1.5 m tall in a nursery but
    the upper leaves look kind of yellow while the bottom ones green and ok.
    Do you guys think i am dealing with chlorosis here. What do you think i
    should do? Any help will be appreciated.

    Not really an Adenium is it? Best go back to where you bought it from or check the tropical plant forum I would think :)

    Updates on my adeniums. My red tree that almost died from root rot last year, is in flower. She is quite lovely.

    First bloom and buds from last year's seedlings. The blossom is small, but the color is rich!

    Red in all her glory! She was so pitiful last summer. She has more than doubles in size.

    First time bloomers. From the bargain table at Ace hardware, last summer.

    Golden bells, planted 12/05/15. Up potted.

    Mixed arabica seedlings, planted 5/15/16. They will,soon need to be up potted. And I've run out of pots. I bought 100 6 inch plastic pots . All full of DRs. I've got two pots left. I need larger pots for last year's babies. Several need up potting.

  • 10 years ago

    Cynthia, your babies are looking very healthy. Great growth for such little time. You not only run out of pots but also run out of space to grow your plants. Such a wonderful enjoyment.

    Yes, Marlene, according to hubby, I am running out of space.

    Now, does anyone have a source for inexpensive 8 inch or two gallon pots. I will need at least 25-50 or more over the next couple of months. To free up 6 inch pots for more babies.

    My first seedling from last year in bloom.

    My Flame seedling in bloom. Not quite like the photo, which was a dark mauve.

    All your plants are beautiful Cynthia, I like every and each of them! :)
