Finally!

After 3 years from buying seeds and sowing some Adeniums I saw the flowers.

And guess what? It is not the colour I ordered!

It is still nice, but it seems that it's the most common one. I ordered a dark tea colour... something between red and dusty pink. It was supposed to be so pretty!
I have two more plants that don't show any signs of buds, Maybe they will be different. Maybe the cheeky Ebay seller was just selling any mixed seeds saying telling people to pick a colour.

Yea, it has yellow leaves. It generally doesn't look like the happiest plant. I can't quite figure out what it likes. I change paces on my balcony providing more sun or more shadow... and I just dunno. I will not dare to water it more though. I already killed two like that.

Lets just hope the bigger they grow, they more resilient to whatever condition I provide they will be.
