What a cracker! I believe they have no scent, which seems a shame for such an attractive, waxy looking flower

I grew some adeniums from seed this spring...they're called 'Thai Beauty' and I'm really looking forward to them flowering in a year or two...I hope.  |

I don't know how big they have to be before they flower...mine are only a couple of inches tall atm so I'm not expecting much this year...I was wondering where to keep them over winter as the main instructions I got said 'don't let them get cold' so the conservatory is out then as it only has one of those low wattage radiators in there and isn't double glazed...
Will they be OK on my kitchen windowsill? anybody know? it's where I keep orchids in the winter...or would they be better off in the living room? Neither are particularly sunny....

Never heard of them before Cheery but they look kinda cute, the flowers on Thai Beauty look lovely. I love the 3 old teracotta pots you have, I like the new ones to but the old ones have so much more character |

Grow them like tomato plants in summer and your rarest, most difficult plant in winter. Stop watering when leaves turn yellow and do NOT water again until leaves start to appear in spring.
