Three shades of gold, one legendary bloom
- 🏆 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".

Low-Maintenance Bloom for Your Patio
Q: I'm looking for compact, low-maintenance plants for my patio - something colorful, unusual, and not like the boring crotons. I need several for my lanai, preferably flowering, showy, and easy to care for since I often forget to water. Do such plants even exist?
A: Sounds like you need Adeniums - also known as Desert Roses. They're perfect for patios and lanais, and they check every box: compact, low maintenance, drought-tolerant, and bursting with color. You can grow them in sun or shade, and they don't mind if you forget to water now and then. Plus, they're real conversation pieces - people collect them like art! Adeniums look like living sculptures thanks to their thick, swollen caudex.
At Top Tropicals, we grow over 200 hybrid varieties of Adeniums, and usually have 100+ in stock. You'll find doubles, reds, purples, yellows, even striped, dotted, rainbow, and black flowers. With so many options, you'll want more than just one!
Want that iconic fat base? Here's the trick:
Every time you repot, raise the plant slightly to expose more of the upper roots. This encourages downward root growth and thickens the caudex over time. Just use a well-draining mix, water only when dry, and feed with Sunshine Megaflor Booster to support both blooming and trunk growth.
Adeniums aren't just low-effort - they're living art for your lanai!
The First Video of Exotic Adenium Hybrids
Our Desert roses - Adeniums - were planted in March - and now, at the end of April, they're in full bloom. Just look at these colors in this ">short video!
Which fertilizer to use: Organic or Inorganic?
Sunshine Boosters
Inorganic fertilizers
Cow
ℹ️ Fertilizers help plants grow. They give plants nutrients they need. There are two types of fertilizers:
🐮 Organic Fertilizers:

- · Good for the soil and environment.
- · Release nutrients slowly, which helps plants over time.
Inorganic Fertilizers:
- · Made from chemicals in factories.
- · Can give plants quick nutrients.
- · Might harm the soil and environment over time.
⏺Pros of Organic Fertilizers:
- · Better for the health of the soil.
- · Helps good microorganisms live in the soil.
- · Safer for pets and kids.
- 🔴Cons of Inorganic Fertilizers:
· Can cause pollution.

Organic or inorganic fertilizers, which is best?
A very smart article by Fedor, Mike, and Ed
Q: Which one is better - organic or inorganic fertilizer?
A: When it comes to fertilizer, gardeners always wonder if one better than the other. Does a total organic fertilizer make sense for you? Is it easier to just use a cheap granular fertilizer a few times per year? You may be surprised to learn that there is one fertilizer that has advantages over both!
While organic fertilizers may be all the rage, there is the difference
between Sunshine Boosters
fertilizers, organic and inorganic fertilizers. Sunshine Boosters fertilizers have been especially developed to provide optimal conditions for cultivating crops in pots and greenhouses. These specialized nutrient blends are essential in order to
maintain an appropriate environment for successful crop production, as they
compensate for the lack of natural beneficial bacteria and nitrifying
organisms which are specific to open soil cultivation.
Learn about why Sunshine Boosters is the best choice...
