Ah!!! Dwarfs

Hi Arabicum lovers;

Today I would like to show you some of my Dwarf varieties. I pretty believe that the best factor very important to help seedlings become with the nice form is HYBRID from Mother plant you sow.

There are 2 kinds of seedlings:
1. Seedling followed as Mother Plant Form As we know. some seedlings can be mutant from sowing. If you would like to get this kind of seedling, you should know the mother plant form and source.

Form means "what you want your seedling will be look like". Source means "how much true hybrid you get". This can help you save sowing time and better than sowing seeds without knowing hybrid you get.

2. Mixed Seedling HybridThis kind of seedling can make by hand crossed pollination. You can imagine what new seedling form would be like. The best thing is to know what mother plants you wanna cross.

Two Crossed Hybrids should come from each nice motherplants. Not only crossing with Arabicum x Arabicum, but now we can cross Arabicum x Thai Socotranum.

For this time, I would like to talk about Arabicum x Arabicum first. Mostly I would like to use Arabicum:RCN (The best Arabicum as most productive form) as male and use Arabicum:PNW as female because RCN stamen is very strong and faster move into pistil than

other Arabicum stamen. RCN herself is hard to perform Dwarf or chubby form but RCN is good for productive flowers and especially with branch internodes. Most popular form of PNW are Multi-Branch and Muscular Branches but few flowers.
Below photos are what we crossed 1. RCN X PNW (Multi-Branch) - we have new F1 charactered like Bamboo or Medusa style with many internodes




around branches and shiny leaves with red border. 2. RCN X PNW (Muscular) - We have new F1 charactered like Rhinozaur, shiny and thicker leaves. 3. RCN X Black Giant - This is our sucess because F1 is pretty stable now. We named this as "Siam Majestic" or Black RCN. OK, I think this is enough for sharing idea. Have a great day,, my adenium friends in this planet.
