HUGE ADENIUM ARABICUM’EMERALD CROWN’ with CERTIFICATE. A real collectors item! This huge arabicum’EMERALD CROWN’ is in a 24″ pot and about 27″ tall from soil line. Circumference of caudex is 39. Included is a certificate of authenticity from the grower in Thailand. A really nice one for Bonasi lovers. Gorgeous form, very nice skin, balance and branching. This needs at least a 24 wide pot. This is a big, heavy plant so it will require a big box. You will receive the exact plant that is shown in the pictures. SOME KEEP THEM, SOME DROP THEM. POTS ARE NOT INCLUDED. Arabicum and Thai Socos are fast growers with good cold tolerance down to 32 degrees. I have lots of seedlings and some really huge plants that I will be listing so keep checking back. Adeniums are native to Sahel regions, south of the Sahara from Mauritania & Senegal to Sudan and tropicaland subtropical eastern and southern Africa & Arabia. It is excellent in pots especially for people who kill everything because Adeniums live with very little care and can take a good deal of neglect. It will become larger, more interesting and more valuable every year with some attention. Most flowering occurs during the spring and fall in Florida, but flowering can occur any month of the year if it is in a warm, sunny location. Adeniums love warm weather and most drop their leaves and go dormant during the cooler months. Adeniums are easily brought inside and grown as houseplants during the winter months in cold areas and will even bloom if put near a sunny window or under lights or you can allow them to go dormant. Changes in temperature and or conditions often cause leaves to drop. Adeniums like plenty of light…. 4-6 hours of full sun and most appreciate some partial shade in the afternoon during the hot summer months in southern states to prevent sunburn of the caudex. 6 hours of full morning sun, then filtered afternoon sun is how I grow mine in Florida. Use a loose, well draining potting mix and water when almost dry. I use a mix of coco coir chips, pine bark fines or orchid bark mixed with some well draining potting mix composed of peat, compost, coarse river sand and wood chips. Time release fertilizer can be applied in the spring, then in winter, cut back on water and do not fertilize while they are dormant. Obesums please protect from temperatures below 45 degrees and arabicums below 32 degrees. Seedlings(first year) protect below 50. Every year or two lift the caudex a few inches. Gradually let the newly exposed, tender caudex that was under the soil adjust to the sun to avoid sunburn. Facebook also has many excellent adenium groups where you can get lots of valuable information. IN WINTER IT IS IMPERATIVE THAT YOU TRACK THE PACKAGE AND BE THERE TO RECEIVE IT. LEAVING IT SITTING IN THE COLD OR EXTREME HEAT IN SUMMER MAY DAMAGE OR KILL THE PLANT. Standard takes from 5-7 days. However, if they do, more should replace them shortly after you pot them. Please be ready to re-pot your plant when it arrives and do not fertilize right away. Let them rest in their new soil in a shady or semi shady location for a couple of weeks. You can give them some Liquinox Vitamin B, Super Thrive and or Fox Farms Kangaroots in their water to give them a boost.
