Bring the Beauty of the Desert Rose Home
The Taiwan Adenium Obesum Desert Rose (Red) Live Plant is a stunning succulent, perfect for adding a touch of exotic beauty to your home. Commonly known as the desert rose, the Adenium Obesum is native to the hot, humid climates of Africa and Arabia.

This flowering succulent boasts swollen stems and clusters of beautiful pink and red flowers. Its narrow green leaves create a striking contrast, making it an excellent houseplant or indoor natural bonsai. The Desert Rose needs plenty of light and fresh air to stay healthy. In winter, keep it in a bright location, and in summer, move it outdoors to a sunny or partly shaded spot if possible.
To ensure your Adenium Obesum thrives, provide plenty of water but avoid standing water. Select a pot with superb drainage, such as terra cotta or ceramic. A well-draining soil mixture of two parts loam and one part coarse sand is ideal. The desert rose is perfect for a sunny window because it needs full sunlight daily.
