All kinds of adenium and their prices are on this web page. The diameter of young grafts is about 4 cm (usually larger than 4 cm). Each kind of grafts, which has 2-3 sprouts and the sprouts height are about 4-5 cm, costs 150NT$~10,000NT$. In addition, the normal desert roses usually bloom less pretty. Therefore, they are cheaper and more common. On the other hand, the better desert roses will cost more than the normal ones, and their qualities is definitely better but they are scarcely in Taiwan.
Some flowers shown in the pictures are not sold in the market yet, and 4-6 kinds are even not sold in Taiwan¡¦s Adenium market. If you like some flowers in this website, please e-mail me the flowers' English names and quantities. I will reply to you ASAP and give you the specific prices and the amount of the stock.

such as you may want to assign the name of seeds (Red aurora, Arctic snow and etc.) as your favorite, then the price will be higher. Relatively, the chances of having various and pretty progeny will be also higher. On the other hand, if your concern is color rather than varieties, such as red or white adenium, the price will be much cheaper.

The seeds that are just harvested won¡¦t be sold, because they are so wet that they will be moldy easily. They will be dried before selling. When you receive the seeds, you must soak them in the water for 2-4 hours before sowing, so that the germination rate will be higher. After sowing, you should keep the soil wet for three days until the sprouts appear. Please watch out for temperature that will affect the germination rate directly. Generally speaking, the germination rate is between 75% and 95%.
Usually, the seeds will be cleaned and they are far from dust or other materials. Also, they will be tried naturally before shipping. It can prevent them from being moldy during the shipment. Therefore, you may feel more confident for our nice seeds.
In addition, you can find from my WebPages that some of seeds aren't produced easily, so they don¡¦t have too much production. Relatively, their price will be higher than others. If you want to order any seeds, please email me first and we will see what we can do for you.
Here I will explain why the seeds supply in a small amount. First, they are not mature yet. It should take about 1~3 months to let them be mature. Next, I don't provide all kinds of seeds. Because I am a businessman, I always pick up more potential ones to pollinate. Of course, I'm not very sure if each progeny is better than its parents, but who knows? Every seed is like a hope for the future, isn't it?
Recently, I breed many striped adeniums of American series, and I make a breakthrough in white flowers. Now I keep on collecting some types of ADENIUM that are easily inseminated in the natural way. And I believe that I'll create more new varieties of ADENIUM in the next year. There is not any problem of nematode in Taiwan. After applied for the quarantine certificate in the airport, you can bring your favorite varieties of desert roses home easily.
My planting area of desert roses could be considered as the third largest farm in Taiwan. I produce seeds, graft, and create new types of flowers. In normal, the garden isn't open to the public, only if you make an appointment in advance, and tell me exact time and the number of the visiting people. Thanks for your cooperation.
The price of desert roses will rise a little bit this year in Taiwan. The reason is that the follow-up people of planting desert roses couldn't produce right away because they are short of some conditions of production.
Usually, we Taiwanese don¡¦t call the adenium in English, so when we translate Chinese names into English names, the translation are not always the same. Therefore, I will suggest that you just name them whatever you like or common in your country.
I couldn't answer your letter quickly because I need a translator to help me to reply the messages. Thus, as you know, I couldn't control the time by myself. Usually, I often reply the letter during the weekdays (Mon ~ Fri). If you really need me to reply soon, please feel free to let me know and I will just reply you some simple words. I am really sorry for this and wish this could be understandable. It is a pleasure to talk about desert roses to you, but the language is a big problem for me. I really hope the computer software may become smarter and translate Chinese into English better.
You could transfer the money after the documents are done. When I receive it, I will send an E-mail to inform you. Usually, you can receive the order within eight to ten days after we received the remittance. Of course, we'll also send an E-mail to inform the day of delivery.

Three Important things to remind:
1. Do you need a quarantine certificate? (It is free.) If you need any other quarantine items, then please mention it within your order.
2. If you are afraid of the purchase being held in customs, we recommend you apply for a quarantine certificate. We believe that the quarantine certificate is one of the key elements for successful shipment. 3. Some clients only purchase a small amount, and the quarantine certificate won¡¦t be necessary in some countries. However, I can't promise it can be practiced everywhere. Most customers deliver via priority mail, which is cheaper, but it will take longer for shipment. If you wish your purchase to be arrived earlier, then you may feel free to inform us which kind of international mailing service you prefer. Currently we have EMS, Express, FedEx, and UPS for better and more efficient delivery in Taiwan.
The Secrets of having 95% germination rate for Adenium:
1.
The best temperature for Adenium to survive is
from 20 to 35¢J.
2. Selecting fresh seeds or seeds that are harvested
during three months to sow.
3. Before sowing, soak the seeds into water for
at least two to four
hours. If you are using water-tube to water the seeds, you must soak them for
two to four hours. Otherwise, if you water the seeds by sprinkling, you can
sow them first and then just sprinkle them for 15 minutes.
4. The first week for sowing, please keep the appropriate
wet for the soil in order to have better sprout.
5. Once the seeds sprout and grow two leaves, please
decrease the wet of environment (soil). Before watering, the surface of the
soil needs to be dry.
6. It only takes two months for the seeds to sprout
and grow into 1-2 cm in diameter, and the temperature must be kept in the range
of 22~35¢J. In addition, I have to declare that I do not use fertilizers in
my soil.
7. After the seeds have sprouted, add fertilizer
into water and then sprinkle them. In that way, the leaves can also absorb the
fertilizers. Fertilizers used as N,P,K, for every 4 to 5 days until the plants
need to change their pots into a three-inch pot.
8. The soil for the three-inch basin would require
fertilizers for the long-term, which means that the Adenium would need to be
fertilized about every ten days.

It reaches 85% for pink seeds to bear pink flowers.
2.White: It reaches 95% for white seeds to bear white flowers.

9.White petal with red curving: It reaches 95% for white petal with red curving

Notes:
When you receive the seeds, you must soak them in the water for 2-4 hours before
sowing. In this way, you can increase the germination rate. After sowing, you
should keep the soil wet for three days until the sprouts appear. Please notice
for the temperature, which will affect the germination rate directly. From my
experiments, the germination rate is between 75% and 95%. The Adenium seeds
I mail to the clients are all freshly harvested. When you sow our seeds under
the temperature of 20 to 35¢J. I am able to guarantee the seeds will be able
to have more than 90 percent of germination rate. All of the seeds I mailed
to my customers come from my adenium garden. If you order white, red, and white
petal with red curving adeniums, they will have 90% similarity of the pictures
you see on my website. However, the progenies of purple and striped line adenium
are more flexible. I haven't been able to keep track of their originalities;
therefore, they are a little hard to be predictable. It can be guaranteed that
all of the seeds which my clients order are from the Adenium garden you see
on the website. If you want the seeds to grow better than those in my pictures,
I can tell you that it rarely happens. If you really keep the seeds under appropriate
temperature, it will have a great chance to bloom like the pictures you see
on my website.
If there is any further questions or anything
about adenium I can help, please feel free to email me.
