9GreenBox Triple Spin Desert Rose Live Plant

Product Description Desert Rose, or Adeniums, is a flowering plant species that is native to southern and eastern parts of Arabia and Africa. It has gained popularity as both a houseplant and bonsai tree. This plant thrives in temperate and tropical regions. In ancient African traditions (which still persist today), the sap of the Desert Rose is used for hunting as it contains poison. However, this poison is only harmful if it directly enters the bloodstream. To protect yourself from irritation, it is advisable to wear rubber gloves when handling the plant. The Desert Rose is renowned for adding vibrant colors to gardens and homes, with red being the most commonly seen flower color.

Here are a few important things to consider when growing your Desert Rose:

1. Despite its ability to tolerate drought, it still requires regular watering. Make sure to allow the soil to dry before watering again. Overwatering should be avoided, as with most plants.
2. The Desert Rose needs full sunlight in order to grow properly.
3. Regularly check your Desert Rose, as it needs periods of drought in order to grow. This can potentially attract spider mites.
4. As mentioned earlier, the sap of Desert Rose plants can be poisonous, especially if it comes into contact with the bloodstream. It is important to wear gloves whenever handling the plant.

The Desert Rose is a low-maintenance houseplant that thrives with sufficient sunlight. Its blooming flowers add a lively atmosphere to any home or garden. The 9GreenBox Desert Plant is proudly homegrown and cared for by 9GreenBox.

TRIPLE SPIN DESERT ROSE - The Desert Rose is a plant that produces an abundance of trumpet-shaped flowers in various shades, including pink, rose, white, and yellow. It can be grown both indoors and outdoors. This beauty plant will undoubtedly add a touch of vibrant color to your garden. The flowers can grow up to 2-3 inches in diameter and can be single, double, or even triple.

GROWING DESERT ROSE PLANT - The Desert Rose is a tough flowering plant that requires minimal attention. It is one of the easiest plants to grow. Place your Desert Rose Plant in an area where it can receive full sunlight. Water the plant when the soil has dried out, but reduce watering during the winter season. Keep the plant hydrated enough for it to survive. It is ideal to plant your Desert Rose in a pot so that it can be moved indoors during the winter season.

TAKING CARE OF DESERT ROSE - Desert Rose plants attract various pests, including mealybugs. If you spot these insects, you can eliminate them by simply touching them with a cotton swab dipped in rubbing alcohol. There are also insects that are not easily visible but create a web-like covering on leaves and buds. If you suspect that your Desert Rose is experiencing a mild infestation, you can use a strong jet of water to remove the pests.

PRUNING - Pruning is necessary to maintain your Desert Rose. In late winter or spring, once new growth has emerged, you can start by cutting off any portions that have been damaged by cold weather. Pruning before the expected flowering period encourages abundant flower blossoms.
