Highly revered for its unique structure, glossy foliage, and gorgeous flowers, adenium is a natural bonsai and can remain in the same small container for many years. Because they are native to intense desert conditions, they need as much sun as possible and to dry out completely between watering. The thick, swollen trunk supports a canopy of beautiful leaves and showy, trumpet-shaped flowers, giving you that glorious tropical look you desire. From Roberta's.
