Houseplant Desert Rose Adenium obesum in 4"Pot Indoor Flowering Deciduous Plant

Description: Houseplant Desert Rose Adenium obesum in 4"Pot Indoor Flowering Deciduous PlantAdenium obesum is a deciduous plant with a smaller caudex than Adenium arabicum, which is most frequently used as a desert rose bonsai plant. The Adenium obesum, with its long, narrow, and pointed leaves, grows in clusters at the tips of the branches.The leaves are typically bright green, waxy with reddish edges, and shiny on both the upper and lower sides, distinguishing them from the arabicum (desert rose). It can grow up to 10 feet tall and 5 feet wide, making it a true showstopper among other succulent plants. The desert rose plant can easily go a month or more without water. If they don't get enough water, the stems will start to show signs of discoloration and then start to shrivel up due to a lack of water. If you notice this and then give them water again, the stems will swell up again as your adenium desert rose Adenium obesum starts to absorb water into its stems. Light Requirements The desert rose succulent requires a lot of light and should be grown in either full sun or partial shade. New plants can get burned in the full sun as they were probably grown in a greenhouse; therefore, gradually increase their exposure to sunlight. If the sun is too bright and is burning your plant's leaves, consider purchasing a sunshade or moving the plant to a more shaded location. The adenium desert rose is like a very airy, porous, nutrient-rich soil with a pH of 5.5–6.5. Succulents require fast-draining soil that dries completely between waterings. Soggy, wet soil can damage your succulent and contribute to bacterial and fungal rot. As an alternative, you can create your own potting mix by combining equal portions of perlite, coarse sand, and good natural potting soil. Ideally, you want to use our specialized potting mix that contains 5 natural substrates and organic mycorrhizae to promote the development of a strong root system that helps your succulent to thrive. Natural fertilizers with an equal ratio of 5-10-5 (NPK) also last longer and keep your soil alive by adding other beneficial compounds and microbes that encourage plant health and nutrient absorption. So, skip those harsh chemicals and give your succulent some love with some awesome fertilizer! The desert rose thrives best at 65 to 75 degrees F. A well-draining potting mix and drainage holes in the potting container will help you maintain temperatures and prevent too much moisture. If you plant desert rose succulents outdoors, they grow best in USDA zones 11 and 12 in cooler zones. If you live in a colder climate, you should put them in a pot, and they can then be kept outdoors during the summer and brought in as the temperature drops.
