Soil Rapid drainage. Soil mix with coarse grit, perlite, sand and gravel. In tropical area, we can use the mixtures of 40% rice husk ash (large grains), 20-30% coconut powder, 10% Tribat (processed cow dung), 10% peanut shells and 10% of fresh rice husk. Fertilize soil every 2 months. Planting Adenium Seeds Put seeds into warm water from 6-8 hours and remove floating ones. Put seeds in horizontal position and cover by a very think soil. Gently water and keep enough humidity. Should 1-2 seeds per a plastic pot. After 1 month, move seedlings to a bigger pot. Planting Adenium Seedlings From 1 - 6 months: Water 15-20 days/time for plants by the mixtures of 10-15grams NPK 20-20-15 + TE or NPK 16-12-8 + TE with 10-15 litres of water. Periodically (7-10 days) spray a 3-20-20 fertilizer that contains 3% nitrogen, 20% phosphorus and 20% potassium encourages roots to grow strong and healthy. From 6 months to 1 year: Water 20-30 days/time for plants by the mixtures of 20-30grams NPK 20-20-15 + TE or NPK 16-12-8 + TE. Periodically (7-8 days) spray Fertilizer with more Phosphorus(NPK 15-30-15) to stimulate and enhance bud development and set, seed formation and blooming. Above 1 year with stable flowers: Use 20-30 grams NPK 20-20-15 + TE hoặc NPK 16-12-8 + TE for plants(20-30 days/time). Combine with fertilizer that helps maintaining flowers and boosting new bud, flowers. Best conditions to grow adenium Full sunlight and a temperature of 21-26 Celsius degrees Should be repotted every yea

Adeniums, if grown well, are remarkably free of problems (unlike a plants like, say, Hybrid Hibiscus). Many of the commonest problems can be prevented by proper culture in the first place. The commonest cause of Disease problems are due to over watering. This can be defined as watering in excess of the plants needs to the extent of causing harm. The amount and frequency of water applied to constitute over watering would thus be governed entirely by the plant's needs and its reaction to excess water. Thus in a media like Taiwan's stone chips and warm conditions, it would be virtually impossible to over water while in a media consisting of rotten, sticky peat and cool conditions, it would be very difficult not to do so. Pest problems tend to be concentrated on soft new growth and early in the growing season one needs to keep an eye out for pest build up. Nutritional problems: Occur due to a number of reasons besides the actual lack of a particular nutrient in the media or water. Understanding overall plant nutrition and the needs of Adeniums is key to solving and preventing nutritional problems in Adeniums. A generalized nutritional deficiency in a grafted Adenium: closer examination found that the plastic wrap around the graft was too tight and was girdling the stem. As noted in the section on nutrition, Adeniums do well with a moderate amount of nutrition supplemented with complete micronutrients. Part of the reason is that the most successful media are soil less with either
