| Hi,
I am thinking of buying some adenium obesum seeds from Asia, as they are much cheaper than buying at home here in the UK. However. I am concerned they may not survive the long journey, as temperatures could turn to freezing in the near future. I hear that some tropical seeds can survive short bursts of freezing temperatures, but cannot find out what ones. Should I buy from Asia or pay more than double here at home? Any help will be appreciated! |

| Hi I have had seed sent to me here (Canada) in the winter and they where fine. I keep my extra seeds in the fridge (inside ziploc and sealed container) and planted up in spring and they germinate very well. I would order from Asia. |
|
| That's great news, thanks for your help. |
|
| Seeds from Ko, Adeniumcenter and Rinoa, all with excellent germination and seed quality very good. I am sure there are others also. |
|
| just got some seeds from Ko, ordered 10 he sent me 15, 14 germinated. mr Ko or Rinoa i would go with. Frank |
|
| I think I'll go with Ko. I can't find Rinoa and Adeniumcenter doesn't ship to the UK. It's a shame, as they seem to have a wide variety. Thanks! |

| Hi frearjack, I didn't realize that with adeniumcenter? Rinoa has some seeds on eBay. tw-adeniums Ko, is great and very reputable, would be a good choice. Rick |

| Hi frearjack, I have just received a pack of seeds from AMB Trading via Amazon.co.uk and they look fine (arrived undamaged from Poland) but I guess successful germination will be the proof. This is my first attempt at growing Adenium and I have chosen Obesum Honey and Sunday. I haven't found many suppliers in UK. Juneyp |

| Can someone give me the link to Ko and Rinoa's ebay stores? I can't seem to find them at all, even under "tw-adeniums" |
|
| Should be able to find them on eBay, if you type in on left column where it states specify seller. adenium_ko is there and rinoa under tw_adeniums. Rinoa will send a PDF of what she has and has some nice seeds and plants on eBay right now. rinoa.ch@gmail.com Hope this helps, Rick |
|
| I also bought some seeds from Mr Ko in Dec12 but did not sow them due to cold weather can anybody advise me when to sow these in northern India? |
