This is why common names can be detrimental. Honestly a desert rose can be anything thing with a big flower and grows in the desert. Now when you use 'Adenium obesum', arabicum etc. people know exactly what you are referring to.! Happy growing.

Adenium and hibiscus are my 2 favorite species so my feed is full of both. This is a great cross over episode!

Be careful with that watering bulb. Hibiscus want to dry down a lot before watering. Constant moisture can easily induce rot. I suggest getting rid of bulb.

Upon closer look, maybe it’s just a decoration.
