Comments: Adenium Obesum is a very beautiful Adenium. She has a very beautiful gray/green caudex with green leaves. Like every caudex plant, it has a rest period during which it will drop all its leaves. Even when moved, it may lose some of its leaves. During leaf loss or dormancy it is important that the plant receives little water.
Adenium Obesum is supplied as a rooted plant as shown in the photo. There are a limited number of plants available. Every plant is unique and plants can differ from each other.
Care for Adenium Obesum:
The Adenium Obesum likes little water, but it is important that the soil does not become completely petrified. If there is too much water (wet feet), the plant can rot.
The Adenium Obesum is not demanding on its location, it tolerates full sun. Adenium Obesum can be placed as a houseplant or as a garden plant on the terrace in the summer.
Adenium Obesum can be fertilized once a month during the summer months with a light fertilizer. Fertilization is virtually unnecessary in autumn and winter. Growth then becomes slower and the plant uses few nutrients.
Adenium Obesum is sensitive to too much water. The plant should therefore never feel wet.
