Adenium

Adenium arabicum

This species is typically a shrub that develops a massive caudex topped with multiple erect branches, and it grows fast. Small pink flowers. Fairly cold tolerant when dry, but no frost.

Adenium arabicum compact form

This strain bred from selected parents remains smaller than standard plants of the species, growing slowly to only about one-third the usual size. Small pink flowers. The plants offered are in 2-1/4 inch pots, but are the same size as the pictured one in the 4" pot.

Adenium

Hybrid Adeniums!
Karoo Rose, Desert Rose

We are offering these beautiful flowering Adeniums at the nursery Plants for the Southwest. Several are from an interspecific cross between A. obesum and A. swazicum and were produced in the 1980s by plant breeder Mark Dimmitt who has been breeding for red flowers, large and many. He has succeeded! After more than twenty years he now has several clones that have either all red flowers (including the throat) or other superior characteristics. The other adeniums have been selected by some of the country’s best growers. We offer rooted cuttings of these named clones for sale at the nursery. These plants thrive on heat and lots of light. We try to maintain a constant supply of these rooted cuttings throughout the hot, summer season, but must have hardened off plants to offer for sale.
