Description:
Adenium obesum, or the desert rose, is a succulent known for its thick, bulbous trunk and deep pink, trumpet-shaped flowers. It can grow up to 2-5 feet tall and thrives in bright light and warm temperatures between 70-80°F. This plant is drought-tolerant and requires well-draining soil, making it ideal for sunny areas. However, it is toxic if ingested and sensitive to freezing temperatures.
