r/Adenium

I found this unique Adenium at a local nursery here in Austin. I’ve never seen one like this at any of the nurseries and plant shows I’ve been to over the years. It has 3 different types of grafts- one variegated, one speckled, one red-veined (I dunno the actual botany terms for these types of variations lol sorry).

I tied some hemp twine around the graft sites to support them, and twisted wire around the stems bc they were drooping and I wanna control the plant’s growth. Just wanted to share, super excited to see what the flowers are! And yeah, it wasn’t cheap!! 😭💸

Feel like it's a bonus. Looks to be a darker stemmed plant, I don't have one of those. Honestly, I've never cared for the prostrate look but it's really grown on me. Looking forward to what kind of blooms I'll get. Waiting for my pot to come on.

He's a Adenium Hybrid Wang Na Ray x Jao la Bird DD .

Hey everyone, I thought these looked intriguing to I bought one, have transplanted it to a bigger pot a few weeks back and it doesn't seem to be doing well. Leaves are droopy and a couple have brown spots. Looking for suggestions, too much or too little sun? It was getting full sun for most of the day and I thought that might have been causing the spots so I moved it top where it mostly gets afternoon sun. Have not been overwatering from what I understand but sure would like some input from the experts. :)

I was given these 3 desert roses. They all have a good caudex but are lanky in the branches. Where i live, winter is almost over, so i am looking for guidance on my next move taking care of these.

I wanted advice on how i should go about pruning.

Also not sure, but i think one has rot in one of the branches since its going yellow and is getting squishy (looks to be from a previous untreated pruning) as seen in first photo.

Also one had seed pods that have started to open.

All care advice welcome.

Thank you all inadvance

ETA: i just discovered some rot at the base of one, its on one face about an inch high and just under an inch wide, not sure how deep it runs

They’re all about 2 months old. 2 pots fell over about a month ago, but all seem to be doing fine! Is this pot size good for them for now? Anything I should be doing more? I heard since it’s currently growing season, I should be watering DR’s more so the base grows thicker? Any tips appreciated!

Hello! I’ve bought these two from Walmart clearance about 2 months ago, and they’re looking much healthier! (It had yellow leaves and looked all sad) how old would you estimate these DR are? Also, is there any specific reason why the leaves on one of them are more narrow at the top?(shows in picture 3 and 4) I believe it was the one in worse condition than the other. Are the pots too big? I keep seeing posts mentioning pots being too big for some, but I’m not sure what the size of the pot would affect

He bloomed for the first time

cosa faccio?

travaso?

meglio aspettare la prossima stagione?

come stanno in generale?

It’s been a year since I pruned this desert rose, and I had this plant for about 7 years, but never had this many flowers. maybe because I only pruned it once last year. each year it would open up one or two blooms and die, but after pruning, it’s given me so many flowers. I never imagined it would be this much! I just cut back on the other one next to it to help it bloom more also.

hello everyone

I've had these plants since seed in the pots they already have; I can already see some roots at the bottom.

So should I repot them? What size pots should they have, and how do I know if I should repot them or if they can stay in their current pots?

I would appreciate any help or advice you can give me on what I should do.

he just popped up and I don’t know what it would be

Trying to decide when I should increase the pot size. These were sown in February
