All kinds of adenium and their prices are on this web page. The diameter of the young grafts is about 4 cm (usually the diameter is more than 4 cm). Every kind of grafts, which has 2-3 sprouts and its sprouts height is about 4-5 cm, costs 5US$~325US$. The Desert Roses, with the ordinary standard, usually bloom less beautiful; however the good quality of Desert Roses in the pictures is very rare in Taiwan.
Some of flowers shown in the pictures are not sold in the market yet, and 4-6 kinds are even not sold in the Adenium market in Taiwan.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 when you purchase seeds
, such as red or white adenium, the price will be much cheaper.
So, would you please let us know what the exact amount and species you want,

I won't send you the seeds that are just picked up because they exist too much water and easily cause seeds moldy. I must dry them before selling them. When you receive the seeds, you must soak them in the water for 2-4 hours before sowing in order to increase the germination rate. After sowing, you should keep the soil wet for three days until the sprouts appear. Please take care of the temperature,which will affect the germination rate directly. Generally speaking, the germination rate is between 75% to 95%.
I must clean and dry the Desert roses seeds in order to avoid being moldy before I send them. Besides, I always product a little amount Desert Roses seeds, which you can see in my homepage. Some kinds of seeds aren't easy produced, so the price will be more expensive. If you want to buy any seeds, please write a mail first and I am sure that you will be satisfied with our service.
Here I will explain why the seeds supply in a small amount. First, they are not mature yet. It should take about 1~3 monthes to let them be mature. Next, I don't provide seeds of all kinds of species. Because I am a business man, I always pick up more potential ones to copulate. Of course, I'm not very sure if each seed is better than his parents, but who knows? Every seed is like a hope, a hope for the future, isn't it?
Recently, I breed many lined-flowers of American series, and I make a breakthrough in white flowers. Now I keep on collecting some types of ADENIUM which are easily inseminated in the natural way. And I believe that I'll create more new types of ADENIUM in September or October next year. I don't have any problems of nematodes in Taiwan. When you have applied for the quarantine certificate in the airport, you can bring your favorite types of desert roses home easily.
My planting area of desert roses should be amongst of the third biggest ones in Taiwan. I must 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 with me in advance, and tell me exact time and the people's number. Thanks for your cooperation.
The price of desert roses will rise a little
bit next 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. We don't have many English names of desert roses in Taiwan, and
when we translate Chinese names into English names, the English ones are not
always the same. So I suggest that you just name them whatever you like in your
country.
I couldn't answer your letter quickly because
I need a translator to help me translate the message.
Thus, as you know, I couldn't control the reply time well. Usually, I often
reply the letter on Tuesday and Friday. If you really need me to reply soon,
I can just reply you some simple words. I have to say sorry for that.
I really like to talk about desert roses to all of you, but the language is a big trouble for me. And I really hope the computer software may become smarter and translate Chinese into English smoothly.
You could remit money after all order document is right. When I receive your money, I will send a E-mail to inform you that I have got the money. Usually, you can receive the order after two to five days we received the remittance. Of course, we'll also send an E-mail to confirm the date of arrival.

Three Important things to remind:
1. If you are afraid of your purchase being withheld at customs, we recommend
you to let us apply for a quarantine certificate.
Because the quarantine certificate is one of the key elements to the successful
trade.
3. Some clients only purchase a few items or a small number of the same items
from us. In that case, you may think you won't need a quarantine certificate.
But if you don't want the quarantine certificate to put inside the parcel, we
can't promise whether the order will be withheld at customs or at any check
points that requires a quarantine certificate.
Most customers uses regular postage, which is cheaper, but more time consuming. But if you wish your purchase to be delivered prompt, then please state which kind of international mailing service you would like. Currently there is : EMS, Express, for better prompt and more efficient delivery in Taiwan.
It is not a good way to send a check to my address because I will need to pay the handling fees for the bank or post office. And I also has to wait about one months to get the money. This payment method is take more cost and time and it may affect you for your order delivery time.
The Secrets of having 95% sprouting on Adenium....
1. The best environmental temperature for Adenium
is from 20 to 35 Celsius Degrees.
2. Selecting fresh picked seeds or seeds that are picked within¡§three¡¨months
to sow.
3. Before sowing, soak the seeds into water for at lease¡§two¡¨to¡§four¡¨hours.
If you are using water-tube to water the seeds, you must soak them for two to
four hours. But 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 medium(soil) wet for the better
sprouting.
5. Once the seeds sprout into two leaves, please decrease the wetness of medium(soil).
Before watering, the surface of the medium needs to be dry.
6. It only takes two months for the seeds to sprout and grow into 1-2 cm in
diameter, providing that the temperature must be in the range of 22~35 Celsius
degrees. Therefore, I must note that I do not use fertilizers in my medium.
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 medium for the three-inch basin would require long-term fertilizers,
which mean around every ten days, the Adenium would need to be fertilized

of Sowing Experiences
2004 The Successful Artificial Pollination....
1.Pink: It reaches 85% for pink flowers to bloom.
2.White: It reaches 95% for white flowers to bloom.
3.Red: It reaches 95% for red flowers to bloom.

8.Red Lining Adenium with Five Petals:It reaches 20% for red lining Adenium
with five petals flowers to bloom
9.White petal with red curving: It reaches 95% for white petal with red curving
flowers to bloom.
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 take care of the temperature, which will affect
the germination rate directly. In my experiments, the germination rate is between
75% to 95%. The Adenium seeds I mail to the clients are all freshly picked.
When you sow our seeds under the temperature of 20 Celsius to 35 Celsius degrees,
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. But the
purple and striped line seeds, the offsprings of the Adeniums, are more changeable.
I haven't been able to keep track of their originalities, therefore, they are
a bit less predictable. But I can assure you that all of the seeds which my
clients order come from the Adeniums garden you see on the website. If you want
the seeds to grow better than those on my pictures, I can tell you that it rarely
happens. But 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. So
keep up a good work.
I check my E-mail
very often, so it's convenient to contact me by E-mail.
