Growing Desert Rose From Seeds

To begin growing adenium seeds, prepare a container with a well-draining growing medium, such as a perlite or sand and soil mix. Place the seeds in the growing medium, ensuring they are just covered. Water the seeds from below daily and from above once every three days until the seedlings appear. Position the growing tray or container on a heating pad and maintain the temperature of the growing medium between 80 and 85°F (27-29°C).

If the seeds are fresh, your desert rose plant seeds should germinate within a week. However, if the seeds are not fresh, the germination process may take longer or may not occur at all. Once the seedlings emerge, water them only from below.

After approximately one month, the seedlings will have grown large enough to be transplanted to a permanent container. This slow growth rate is characteristic of the desert rose, as it is a perennial succulent and tropical plant. The desert rose thrives in full sun conditions and well-drained soil.

Maintaining the proper growing conditions is crucial for the successful cultivation of desert roses from seeds. Ensuring the growing medium is well-draining, providing ample sunlight, and regulating the watering schedule are essential steps in nurturing these unique plants from the seed stage. With patience and attention to their specific needs, you can successfully grow thriving desert rose plants from the initial seed sowing.
