Planting Guide
Sow Adenium Obesum seeds in well-draining sandy soil or a cactus potting mix. Keep the soil lightly moist but never waterlogged. Place in a warm, bright spot with plenty of sunlight. Once seedlings appear, reduce watering slightly to encourage root and stem development. When grown indoors, ensure at least 5–6 hours of light per day. Repot every 1–2 years to refresh soil and promote healthy growth.
