    Jerome, would you defoliate a 15 year-old Fukien Tea in June or July for the sole purpose of removing wire? Live in DC so figure June or July would be warm enough. Tree is healthy and has VERY small leaves. Thx!

    Is defoliation the best way to get a desert rose to ramify? Also, since succulents don’t like a lot of nourishment what’s the best fertilization schedule?

    veey nice desert rose, i live in indiana, i bought a Hawaiian eucalyptus to turn into bonsia and its doing great outside but i am wondering how to keep it alive this winter, i cant find any info on those trees hardly at all. i have grow lights and a plant room i guess i thinking i will bring it in and put it under lights for the winter

  • @davis1928

    Jerome! You mention defoliating your Adeniums up to 4 times per year. How long do you wait between defoliating each time? Every three months, or do you do it often in the spring/summer and let it rest over winter? Since you live in Florida where winter weather isn't really a thing, do you experience(or force) a winter dormancy or continue to grow throughout? I'm in southern california, zone 10b, so I'm trying to figure out if I should force dormancy or let my plants continue to grow.
    Thanks in advance!

    Great videos, thank you so much. One day I hope to visit your store and buy something just for the sake of appreciation of the efforts and passion you have for the beautiful trees. Or will take a lesson. My question today is very simple - why do you need to wear gloves? Is it because of the type of the tree you work on or there is another reason for it? Thank you.

      According to Wikipedia Adenium contains cardiac glycosides i.e it is very toxic

      Yes, they can produce a large amount of seed and are very easy to grow.

    • @WeareTheBonsaiSupply
      @WeareTheBonsaiSupply  5 лет назад

      They do grow seed pods but it’s not the flower that turns into a seed pod. I always cut them off because I want the energy of the tree to focus on branch growth instead

    • @russellramsey8132
      @russellramsey8132 5 лет назад +1

      @@WeareTheBonsaiSupply I do not cut the flowers off of my Adeniums as I want them to produce seed pods. The seed pods they make create a large amount of seed which is very easy to grow. Certainly cutting the branches can focus the growth of the Adenium but I find the species/cultivar ('hybrid') to be much more of a determining factor in overall growth and shape of Adenium.

      We are The Bonsai Supply , but maybe he's getting at letting set seed , so you yourself can produce your own, I understand the waste of energy but you yourself saying it's very rare tells me to get some seeds

    I thought Adenium grown from cuttings will never develop a caudex, which is why they are typically grafted. Am I mistaken?

    • @WeareTheBonsaiSupply

      There is a shade cloth over the tree right now that catches most of the rain. If it gets a little water, no big deal:)

    Keep us up on the clippings. As far as I’ve always known, an Adenium grown from clippings will never produce a giant Caudex. Only seed grown Adenium produce the large Caudex. Im curious as I’m only familiar with Obesum

    • @WeareTheBonsaiSupply
      @WeareTheBonsaiSupply  4 года назад +1

      That is correct, Adeniums grown from cuttings won’t develop a thick caudex.

  • @tspsycho9505
    @tspsycho9505 5 лет назад

    The tree is so mature and the risk of unreversable overgrow is too high so that you want to cut the new grow back quite early. That I understand, but man those cutting, I want those cutting. The new grow is still so young so I not sure if they will make good cutting. if it was me, I would let the new grow mature alitle more and make cutting of them. The Thai Soco is so beautiful and hard to find, and quite expensive when you do find them. Love the Vid, thanks for keep making them.

  • @darae3936
    @darae3936 5 лет назад

    Pretty sure you were lied to about the age of that Adenium. Unless it’s wild collected then it’s possibly that old but who can prove that. Thais did not cultivate Adeniums until maybe around 50 years ago. Mark Dimmit might give some better insight history of Adenium cultivation in Thailand. It’s not as old as we think.

      Derek E hey, it was collected on Socotra and then kept at the same nursery until they sold the nursery and I got a hold of the tree.
