Amazing plant.
""was sown summer 2009"" That's how long I have to wait to see any flower from my seedlings, BIG SIGH!!!

Hello all,
Many thanks for your kind comments.

otis11,
Don't be discouraged, length of time is not fixed. I have many seedlings sown last December that are producing buds. Variability is the name of the game when growing from seed. Best of luck.

Congrats! Beautiful flower.

That is a beautiful flower indeed. I love the caudex, it is unusual creating interest.

Are you going to name and register this plant?

Nice specimen and excellent shape Caudex look forward to pics of your up and coming seedlings

I love the delicate color of this, very elegant. My little Adenium babies have a long way to go!

Great looking Adenium :) Beautiful color.

Welcome Claus.
How long have you been growing DRs?

Thank you otis :) i am really happy i found this forum everyone here seams to be sweet and friendly.
I got my first desert rose from a friend 6 years ago, and since then I have been in love with them.
I have now 6 desert roses. I live in sweden so the flowers have to be inside most of the year, because of the weather here is to cold to have them outside.

Yes, people here are very friendly and very helpful. I am new to this group too.
I am sure you will enjoy it here, especially looking at all those wonderful photos.
