How to grow a happy Adenium

Adeniums
❓How to grow a happy Adenium.
What you need for successful growing Adeniums:
What you need for successful growing Adeniums:
- A small pot with excellent drainage, size of root system.
- Adenium soil mix. Use only well-drained soil. We suggest this Adenium mix.
- Lots of light for heavy flowering. However, in super hot climates, they look healthier in filtered bright light.
- Little water. Adeniums like a neutral to hard water. Acidic water tends to sour the soil too fast and may cause root rot.
Water plants preferably in the early morning, and allow them to drink up throughout the day.
Do not water again until soil dries on surface. Never allow your plants to sit in a saucer of water, but don't let them to dry out too often - this causes adeniums to go into early dormancy. Adeniums do not like both over-watering or drying-out.
5 Fertilizer. To make your plant develop a large swollen base/trunk, you'll need a good quality fertilizer. Sunshine Megaflor provides all the nutrients responsible for both Caudex growth and profuse flowering.
