Product Description
Adenium obesum, also known as the Desert Rose, is a striking succulent shrub with a swollen, sculptural caudex and spiraling branches topped with glossy green leaves. Native to arid regions of sub-Saharan Africa and the Arabian Peninsula, it produces large, showy trumpet-shaped flowers in shades of pink, red, or white throughout the warmer months. Its bonsai-like silhouette, thickened base, and prolonged blooming period make it a favorite for ornamental containers and exotic garden displays.
