Just got a large Adenia fruticosa but curious about its care.
Im pretty new to this world of plants. Been hunting for ones with giant caudexs and stumbled upon this guy recently. I did some brief research on him and then bought him on the spot.
However, I did not realize that the sap of these guys is incredibly deadly and has given me a wave of anxiety. It’s been a good lesson to really research thoroughly before buying these things.
Any tips of care? Am I over worrying about it? How / when does the sap release. Also, is it okay to touch his leaves? Was thinking of repotting him soon but kind of scared to.
