Adenium obesum Rare Blue
Karoo rose - desert rose - impala lily
Description
Adenium obesum 'Rare Blue', also known as the Desert Rose, is a highly sought-after succulent prized for its exotic blue-tinged flowers and unique caudex. The characteristic swollen base stores water, enabling the plant to endure drought conditions. Rare Blue Adeniums produce striking blue-toned blooms that are quite uncommon in the Adenium world, adding a unique color to any collection. This plant prefers full sun exposure for optimal growth and flower production. It thrives in a well-draining soil mix that prevents waterlogging, especially when grown in containers. Propagating Adenium obesum can be done by seed or stem cuttings; however, it requires patience and care, and can be rewarding for enthusiasts.
