Desert Rose Care & Information
Unlike Sting, this Desert Rose doesn’t need to dream of rain. A slow-growing succulent, the Adenium obesum holds water in its swollen trunk, helping it survive drought in the wild. In your home, it will do best in a spot that receives bright direct light. As part of its natural cycle, the Desert Rose may drop its foliage when winter arrives due to less light and lower temps, entering a period of dormancy. No need to worry as it will sprout new leaves come spring.
- Each plant is unique; size and shape fluctuate by season so all measurements are shown as a range
- Small plant measures between 10-13" tall from the soil line to the top of the foliage
- Medium plant measures between 11-14" tall from the soil line to the top of the foliage
- Arrives in a nursery grow pot nestled in your planter choice
