Grow a striking flowering succulent with this set of 2 Red Desert Rose (Adenium obesum) starter plants. Known for its swollen caudex, glossy foliage, and vibrant red blooms on mature plants, Desert Rose is a favorite among succulent collectors and bonsai enthusiasts. It is well suited for containers, patios, and bright indoor growing spaces.
This listing includes 2 healthy starter plants with fully established root systems. Plants are grown in 2-inch nursery pots for cultivation but are not fully rooted into the nursery pots, making them ideal for growers looking for young plants. Each plant is shipped bare root with its original soil pod carefully wrapped to protect the roots during transit. Please do not remove or disturb the soil pod upon arrival.
Natural variation in stem shape, foliage, and branching is expected, making every plant unique.
