I'm a bit intimidated, 120something. I bought 150 pots. (hum, can't edit in a title---)

But a bit crowded, must be done!

Mama and Daddy. "Siam Golden Aroma" sometimes faintly sweet smelling, and a seedling white that I can smell when it's in full bloom and I'm sitting beside it

The woman at the garden center told me to let her know when I want to sell some. Because a phyto-sanitary certificate for each plant costs $65, I plan to sell only on St. Croix.

Those all look amazing, Melissa. So compact.

I agree and such a beautiful combo. I can't wait to see photos of the seedlings when they bloom. Go for it, Melissa. You can do it. We're rooting for you. Hurray! You'll probably sell so well there, there would be no need ship to the US. nodding

Potted up, I can only barely walk around on my little deck! 100 and thirty some. And to think I started with ONE PLANT!!!!! The woman at the hardware store's garden center said she'd buy some for the store. They can't keep them in stock, they sell so quickly, even "just pink".

Wow, the little guys really have taken off growing fast. I put this photo on facebook, and got 65 "likes", that's a lot! And some good replies to my title, DO NOT LEARN TO POLLINATE ADENIUM FLOWER. I'm kind of wondering about my plans to start slowly selling, I thing I might be mobbed.
.
If you look closely, the sign on the only Adenium says $34.99. wow, for a single pink! The hardware store's garden center always sells out quickly, I don't know why they don't keep more in stock. The manager told me to come talk when I have plants to sell. But this one is at least three years old...
