I agree

The reason it's so hard to lose weight when you get up in age is because your body and your fat have become good friends.

@Adeniumgirl
I bought the "Red Adenium" seeds from a vendor on Ebay that also sells plumeria seeds and some other plants and seeds. Not from Ko or Rinoa or any of the known adenium seed vendors. I'll tell you what...when the next tree blooms and they are the same as this one, then I will be able to recommend the vendor. Soon, hopefuly. Fair enough?

I just now looked and found three trees with tiny buds forming. Hurray! Two of them have red coloring, the other has white maybe. I'll post pictures when they bloom. Big Grin

Great news! I can't wait to see them bloom. It's too darned bad that they take so long to form. I guess I'm really impatient about them.

These trees were up-potted 7 months ago into 8" bowls. Now just recently up-potted into 10" pots.

I have many more blooms but since they have the same colors as above I won't upload pictures.

This is one of Rinoa's grafted trees that just opened its bloom:

Thank you, guys. I am very pleased with this one. Took another picture 3 days later...the bloom now measures 4" across, my largest flower so far. Green Grin!
