Add intriguing elegance to your living space with Adenium obesum, commonly known as the desert rose. This captivating succulent, native to Africa and the Arabian peninsula, is celebrated for its sculptural beauty, vibrant flowers, and unique form, making it a must-have for plant enthusiasts and interior decor lovers alike. Your desert rose will produce trumpet-shaped picotee flowers -- white blooms beautifully edged in deep pink. These blooms create a bold and cheerful focal point from spring into fall. The plant's thick, swollen trunk (caudex) and naturally artistic branching give Adenium obesum a bonsai-like appearance, adding an architectural element to any room or garden. Showcase your desert rose as a centerpiece on a coffee table, desk, or shelf. Pair it with modern planters to highlight its sculptural form. During spring and summer, place it on a sunny patio, balcony, or garden, where it can thrive in a bright and warm environment. Provide bright light for optimal growth and flowering. Near a sunny windowsill is ideal. Desert rose can take full to part sun outside. Water thoroughly when the soil is dry or mostly dry during the active growing season. Little water in winter. Use well-draining, sandy soil. Maintain a warm environment (60-85°F); protect it from frost and cold drafts. Prune occasionally to encourage a fuller shape and remove dead or damaged branches. Use a balanced, diluted fertilizer during the growing season to promote healthy growth and abundant blooms.
