Adenium Diary: Albino Seedling Surgery

I found this discussion and decided to try a sideways graft with my my albino.

The thinking is that the side not producing chlorophyll will absorb all the things it needs to survive from the side that is photosynthesizing.

I saw one successful photo floating around so I was hoping that I would also be successful.

So I got my surgery tools ready and proceeded to operate.

Needless to say I was not successful and my albino kicked the bucket…
The plant it was grafted onto survived though so there is that.

I roped my mum into the grafting adventure so be sure to check that out.
