Adenium obesum Siam Vanilla
Karoo rose - desert rose - impala lily
Description
Adenium obesum Siam Vanilla is a captivating cultivar of the Desert Rose, celebrated for its creamy, vanilla-colored flowers and distinctive caudex. The blooms offer a delicate, soft hue that creates a beautiful contrast against the plant's green foliage. Like other Adeniums, Siam Vanilla features a succulent, bottle-shaped trunk that stores water, making it highly drought-tolerant. It is very popular in tropical and arid climates. They thrive in a well-drained soil mix, and require ample sunlight to produce their beautiful blooms. Proper care involves protecting the plant from frost and overwatering, which can lead to root rot. It propagates by seed or stem cuttings; however, grafting is often used to retain specific flower colors.
