This Adenium hybrid, Thong Samsee, features soft, buttery yellow petals with a delicate pink edging around the outer rims.Adenium Thong Samsee has flowers at different stages on the same plant - from pink to yellow and white, creating the impression of a whole garden in bloom! The petals are beautifully layered, giving the flower a full, refined look. Its subtle gradient effect and gentle hues make it an elegant and charming bloom.
The name Thong Samsee comes from the Thai language and consists of three words: Thong ( ) meaning "gold", Sam ( ) meaning "three", and See ( ) meaning "color". It can be translated as "three golden colors" or simply "three-color". This name reflects the variety's unique trait: its flowers transition through three distinct color stages - from soft yellow to pink and nearly white, producing a multicolored display on a single plant. In Thai culture, "gold" symbolizes wealth and prosperity, and the number three represents harmony and completeness, making this plant not only beautiful but also rich in symbolic meaning.
