!!!HYBRID ADENIUMS!!!
Karoo Rose, Desert Rose
| We are offering these beautiful
flowering Adeniums. Several are from an interspecific cross
between A. obesum and A. swazicum and were produced in the 1980s by plant breeder Mark Dimmitt who has been breeding
for red flowers, large and many. He has succeeded! After
more than twenty years he now has several clones that have
either all red flowers (including the throat) or other
superior characteristics. The other adeniums have been selected by
some of the country's best growers. We offer rooted cuttings of
these named clones. These plants thrive on heat and lots
of light. We try to maintain a constant supply of these rooted cuttings
throughout the hot, summer season, but must have hardened off plants
to offer for sale. They are best ordered in mid to late spring
and all summer for best performance. We have some larger
plants, please call or write for availability.
