Hi,

On vacation in Thailand a few years ago I took a cutting of Adenium Obesum and then planted it in a pot, within a few months it was happily flowering, as you can see from the foto. As they are tropical plants I brought it indoors to overwinter, but it died from root rot caused by watering whilst it was dormant.. I bought another one and virtually did not water it during last winter. It lost its leaves but is outside growing away furiously in direct sunlight. They seem to thrive in heat.
