- 🏆 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 name Thong Samsee comes from the Thai language and consists of three words:
🏆 This name refers to the variety's unique trait: its flowers go through three color stages - from soft yellow to pink and nearly white - creating the impression of multiple shades on one plant.
🏆 In Thai culture, the word (ทอง) - "gold" - symbolizes wealth and prosperity, while the number three can be associated with harmony and completeness. Therefore, the name of the variety may carry a wish for beauty and good fortune.
Thong (ทอง) = "gold"
Sam (สาม) = "three"
See (สี) = "color"
Thus, Thong Samsee can be translated as "three golden colors" or "golden triple coloration", or simply "three-color".

🏆 Golden or White Champaka - Which Tree Should You Choose?
Both the White and Golden Champaka trees are prized for their intoxicating, fruity fragrance - often described as smelling like sweet bubble gum. Their blooms are famously used in the creation of Joy, one of the world's most expensive perfumes. While they share many similarities in scent and beauty, there are key differences between the two.
⚪️ White Champaka - Magnolia (Michelia) x alba (in the video) is a sterile hybrid between Magnolia champaca and Magnolia montana. Because it does not produce seeds, this variety is always propagated through grafting or air layering. One major benefit of this is that grafted White Champaka trees begin blooming right away, even when they are still small. This makes Magnolia alba a more reliable and consistent bloomer from a young age.
⚪️ White Champaka is also more compact and slower-growing than the Golden variety, making it especially suitable for container growing and smaller garden spaces.
- 🟡 Golden Champaka - Magnolia (Michelia) champaca is the original species and grows from seed, which means it typically takes a few years to start blooming. However, it has an edge in cold hardiness and is more tolerant of cooler temperatures compared to the White Champaka.
🟡 Golden Champaka tends to be more vigorous and taller, making it a better fit for larger landscape plantings where space and height are not limiting factors.
✍️ In Summary:
✔️ Fragrance: Both smell similar - like fruity bubble gum - and are used for perfume.- ✔️ White Champaka: Grafted, blooms sooner, compact growth, ideal for pots.
- ✔️ Golden Champaka: Grown from seed, blooms later, more cold tolerant, vigorous growth.
- ✔️ Both trees are exceptional choices for Southern gardens. Whether you choose the early-blooming, compact White Champaka or the hardy, golden-flowered original, you'll be adding one of the most enchanting perfume trees to your landscape. Plant both!
