Q: Can you recommend a compact, showy plant for a container by the pool that will bloom with minimal care and survive if I forget to water it? I need 4-5 of them... Does such a plant even exist, or is that too much to ask?
A: Surprisingly, such a plant does exist! Meet the Desert Rose - Adenium - the perfect flowering plant for low-maintenance beauty. Just look at those colors!
Desert roses - Adeniums - are among the most popular container plants for both indoor
and outdoor settings. Here's why:
- Easy to grow - Thrives in sun or shade, indoors, and in low
humidity.
- Drought-tolerant - Requires minimal water and can go long periods
without it.
- Not picky about soil and pH.
- Spectacular blooms - Produces vibrant, showy flowers.
- Unique and eye-catching - Forms a curious, swollen caudex with
unusual shapes.
- At Top Tropicals, we offer over 200 varieties of Adeniums, with more
than 100 in stock at any time.
- With so many stunning hybrid colors, you'll want to collect them all!
- Enjoy double flowers, red, purple, yellow, striped, dotted, rainbow, and
even black flowers!
- Raise the plant slightly each time you repot it, exposing the upper
part of the roots - this encourages the plant to form more roots that grow
downward.
- Unlike most tropical and houseplants, Adeniums prefer neutral to hard
water, have very low water needs, and can thrive in full sun or shade.
Adeniums truly check all the boxes for a carefree, long-blooming, and striking poolside or patio plant!
