Adeniums

[mikhurram]

Munir Sahib,
Below is an image of 'Arabicum' Adeniums. They are more likely to survive in our cold winters months (December, January & February) as compared to common Adeniums and their cordex is also more thicker. These are currently available in Islamabad (a nursery located in Peshawar mor). Infact a few day ago i was able to add 4 more 'Arabicums' in my collection courtesy Kaleem Sahib.

Are these grafted arabicum adeniums or common?

[aykhan]

Also how much do they cost?

[mikhurram]

These Arabicums are ungrafted and are currently being sold for Rs 1500 each. With bargaining the price can be reduced to Rs 1200.

[aykhan]

Are the obesum cheaper? Is it practical to grow arabicum from seeds? How long from seed before you can graft?

Could you please recollect/check the name of the nursery?

Prices are more or less the same but Arabicum are not so common here in Pakistan. Yes it's practical to grow them from seeds but it would require at-least 4 years to attain this size.

Sir Munir, I bought two plants of adenium(with flowers) 'Arabicums' from Fateh Muhammad Nursery Peshawar Morr Islamabad only for RS 150 each(he demanded Rs200 each) on 1st May. The plant type,size and health are the same as shown in the last pic by MiKhurram. My camera is on the tour of northern areas. I will upload the pic as soon as i get it.

That's quite a difference from the Rs 1500 quoted earlier!
