This bonsai plant has fleshy roots and intimate postures. Then it blooms in rosy splendor! I feel like I'm back in art school whenever I look at it.
Desert Rose is a wonderful plant to bonsai. I have had one plant for 20 years and every year I cut it back to the fleshy root/stem. And every Spring it flowers profusely like some ancient bonsai cherry tree but much easier and more enjoyable. And before it flowers again, it looks like the fleshy human body image below.
Adenium obesum is a species of flowering plant in the dogbane family, Apocynaceae, that is native to the Sahel regions, south of the Sahara (from Mauritania and Senegal to Sudan), and tropical and subtropical eastern and southern Africa and Arabia. Common names include Sabi star, kudu, mock azalea, impala lily and desert rose.
It is an evergreen or drought-deciduous succulent shrub (which can lose its leaves during cold spells). It can grow to 1–3 m (3.3–9.8 ft) in height, with pachycaul stems and a stout, swollen basal caudex. The leaves are spirally arranged, clustered toward the tips of the shoots, simple entire, leathery in texture, 5–15 cm (2.0–5.9 in) long and 1–8 cm (0.39–3.15 in) broad. The flowers are tubular with five petals, Plumeria and Nerium. The flowers are frequently red orpink, often with a whitish blush on the outer side of the throat.

I've had this plant for 2 1/2 years. It first blossomed last summer, then in winter it lost all its leaves. We called it "the stick."
This spring I repotted it and fertilize once a week. It exploded with new foliage. It's a happy plant!
* Adenium obesum is native to Southern Africa and Arabia and is also called Sabi Star.

Adenium obesum is a species of flowering plant in the dogbane family, Apocynaceae, that is native to the Sahel regions, south of the Sahara (from Mauritania and Senegal to Sudan), and tropical and subtropical eastern and southern Africa and Arabia. Common names include Sabi star, kudu, mock azalea, impala lily and desert rose. In Philippines it is known as Kalachuchi
It is an evergreen or drought-deciduous succulent shrub (which can also lose its leaves during cold spells, or according to the subspecies or cultivar). It can grow to 1–3 m (3.3–9.8 ft) in height, with pachycaul stems and a stout, swollen basal caudex. The leaves are spirally arranged, clustered toward the tips of the shoots, simple entire, leathery in texture, 5–15 cm (2.0–5.9 in) long and 1–8 cm (0.39–3.15 in) broad. The flowers are tubular, 2–5 cm (0.79–1.97 in) long, with the outer portion 4–6 cm (1.6–2.4 in) diameter with five petals, resembling those of other related genera such as Plumeria and Nerium. The flowers tend to red and pink, often with a whitish blush outward of the throat.
Adenium obesum produces a sap in its roots and stems that contains cardiac glycosides. This sap is used as arrow poison for hunting large game throughout much of Africa[2] and as a fish toxin.
Adenium obesum is a popular houseplant and bonsai in temperate regions. It requires a sunny location and a minimum indoor temperature in winter of 10 °C (50 °F). It thrives on a xeric watering regime as required by cacti. A. obesum is typically propagated by seed or stem cuttings. The numerous hybrids are propagated mainly by grafting on to seedling rootstock. While plants grown from seed are more likely to have the swollen caudex at a young age, with time many cutting-grown plants cannot be distinguished from seedlings. Like many plants, Adenium obesum can also be propagated in vitro using plant tissue culture.
This plant has gained the Royal Horticultural Society's Award of Garden Merit.
Yes indeed! It was wet and wetter. I arrived on Lombok in a rainstorm and though the monsoon let up a few times, it made today very wet. Not wet enough, though, to keep me indoors.
Always something to see in the Garden. Here's Adenium obesum, Desert Rose. It grows all over the wet and the not-so-wet Tropics but it hails from Yemen. At least that's where it was first collected for description by intrepid Peter Forsskål (1732-1763). A student of Great Carolus Linnaeus, he was appointed a botanist member of the Danish Expedition to Egypt and Yemen, 1761-1763. Adenium was collected at Al Hadiyah in the Hadramaut Province. Forsskål died of malaria during the expedition, but his copious botanical notes were edited by Carsten Niebuhr in 1775. The latter remarks that this Adenium has neither flowers nor leaves in February. No doubt that holds for Yemen conditions; here it's in Full Flower, regardless the rain.
This flower is the crowning event of a very strangely shaped succulent. It's trunk looks for-all-the-world like a woman's body! All year this woody stem sits by expectantly and then suddenly up comes at shoot that produces this marvelous, golden-throated, rosy stamen flower!
Look closely at it's hairy filaments and ripply glowing edges.
Yes, hard to believe that this delicate pink edged flower has emerged from the fleshy succulent pictured below. You never know, do you?
Desert Rose is easy to bonsai. I have had one for 20 years and every year I cut it back to enjoy the contours of its fleshy root/stem. Every Spring it flowers profusely like an ancient Chinese cherry tree.
Desert rose has become a popular ornamental garden plant. Adeniums are succulent, tropical plants. They are distinctive among the class because they develop a caudex, or swollen trunk. All succulent plants have some sort of water storage system, be it leaves, stems or roots. In desert rose, the trunk swells to conserve moisture for times of drought. A nice fat trunk is an indicator of plant health. A skinny stem can mean the plant needs more moisture.
Growing Tip: Adenium plants are native to regions with poor, gritty soil and hot, sunny climates.

Adenium obesum - Desert rose, Mock Azalea, Impala Lily or Sabi star are just some of the common names.
Currently flowering in our garden is this spectacular succulent.
I was so surprised to see this single bloom look nearly 3D - of course this is only due to the dark bud behind the petal. Amazing.
Happy weekend to all my friends. May the creative force be with you :) ♪♫ ♪♫

Adenium multiflorum is small, succulent tree native to central and eastern Southern Africa. Like other members of the succulent Apocynaceae family, A. multiflorum has a milky latex with toxic alkaloids, specifically Cardiac glycosides . This latex is used as an arrow poison and as a fish stunning poison.
It is sometimes treated as a variety or subspecies of Adenium obesum

Français :
Adenium obesum (la Rose du désert) est une espèce de plantes à fleurs, contenant plusieurs sous-espèces. Elle est aussi appelée Baobab chacal, Lis des Impalas, Sabi Star ou Kudu.
La plante est originaire d'une aire couvrant l'Afrique de l'Est et le sud de l'Arabie.
Adenium obesum est une plante succulente pachycaule à feuillage persistant pouvant mesurer jusqu'à 3 mètres de haut et dont le tronc forme un caudex, sorte de très gros renflement gris-vert situé à la base du tronc qui sert d'organe de réserve.
Ses nombreuses petites branches se terminent par quelques grandes feuilles charnues, mesurant de 5 à 15 cm de long et 1-8 cm de large disposées en spirales autour des rameaux. Elles sont difficiles à densifier car chaque nouvelle feuille est accompagnée de la chute d’une plus ancienne. En cas de conditions difficiles il perd ses feuilles pour se rendre plus résistant aux conditions extrêmes — peu de feuilles = peu d’évaporation, c’est une technique de survie en zone aride.
Roses ou rouges, ses fleurs à 5 pétales en trompette de 2 à 5 cm de long, ressemblent à celles du Plumeria et apparaissent au printemps et à l’automne.
Bien qu’il ne s’agisse pas d’un arbre stricto sensu, on peut faire d'Adenium un simili-bonsaï d’intérieur.

Taken for Saturday Self Challenge 28/03/2020 - Indoor Still Life .
I took this shot for the challenge just a few hours before our world was turned upside down with a bereavement , I have put it on for SSC , but forgive me if I do not get round to many comments .
Had thought of taking a shot of this pot full for some time now and this was the motivation . The main plant is the Adenium Obesum , the globular looking plant is a form of Sedum that I grabbed from the greenhouse to make up the display in the pot but the plant on the left I am blowed if I can remember what that was !!

Adenium Obesum is a plant I have liked since my days in the BCSS ( British Catus and Succulent Society ) and I found caudiciform plants a particular interest .
Caudiciform plants form a caudex—a fat, swollen stem, trunk, or aboveground roots. Plants in this category sport colorful names like elephant’s foot, Buddha belly, pregnant onion, and turtle back. Caudiciform plants number in the hundreds, and almost as many gardening clubs are devoted to their unusual architectural forms.
As for the flowers - I had a previous plant and never got it to flower and this one has a bit longer until it would be ready .
