Adenium, Desert Rose (Pink, Double Shaded) Plant – with Pot

Description

The Desert Rose is a small succulent tree native to Africa and Arabia which has fleshy leaves and develops a bulbous base. It produces large pink and white or red flowers when it gets enough sunlight.

The Desert Rose is popular as an ornamental plant but not often seen as a bonsai. It is vigorous and healthy under the right conditions and with proper care. The Desert Rose Bonsai adapts easily to growing in a pot, what makes it well suited for bonsai. During winter time the plant will drop its leaves except in special tropical climates. The milk sap of the Desert Rose is poisonous.

Adenium Plant’s Care Instructions:

Light: In their native habitat, adeniums grow in full sun so they need good light to thrive. Direct sunlight is preferable, especially when they are in their active growth phase during the summer months.

Soil: Soil is the very import part for a plant. Adenium plant should have a mixture of cactus soil with gritty sand or lava rocks for good drainage.

Water: The Desert Rose needs to watered only every 7 to 10 days.

Fertilizer: Use liquid fertilizer at half the recommended strength once a month from spring to autumn

Repotting: Repot every two or three years in spring with root-pruning. A well-draining soil mix is needed as excess wetness is a sure way to kill the Desert Rose.
