History of the desert rose Adenium arabicum 'Baobab'
The Adenium arabicum ‘Baobab’, also known as the desert rose, comes from the dry regions of the Arabian Peninsula and is popular for its thick, gnarled caudex (swollen stem base) – hence the comparison with a mini baobab. This variety is particularly sought after by collectors and is often grown as a houseplant or in a dry terrarium . Its striking, funnel-shaped flowers and sculptural growth make it a real eye-catcher.
As a houseplant, Adenium arabicum typically flowers from spring to late summer, usually between April and August – provided the conditions are right.
For it to flower, it needs:
-
Plenty of light – a very bright spot, ideally with direct sun (e.g. a south-facing window).
-
Warmth – 20–30 °C is ideal. It does not like the cold.
-
A dry rest period in winter – keep cool (approx. 15 °C) and dry, and hardly water at all. This encourages flowering in spring.
-
Good drainage – cactus-type substrate, no waterlogging.
Without these conditions it may remain flowerless for years as a houseplant, but it still grows decoratively.
Care as a houseplant:
-
Light: Very bright, preferably in direct sun – a south-facing window is ideal.
-
Temperature: Ideally 20–30 °C; avoid below 10 °C.
-
Humidity: Low; a dry indoor climate is ideal.
-
Substrate: Very free-draining, mineral substrate (e.g. cactus soil with sand).
-
Watering: Only water when the substrate is completely dry; keep almost dry in winter.
-
Feeding: Every 4 weeks with cactus fertiliser during the growing season.
-
Special features: This houseplant loves dry conditions and stores water in its thick stem.
Care in a dry terrarium:
-
Location: Directly under a warm terrarium lamp or with plenty of sunlight.
-
Air circulation: Important – no permanently humid air; keep it dry and warm instead.
-
Dormancy: Overwinter at approx. 12–15 °C with very little water – leaves may be shed.
Adenium arabicum ‘Baobab’ is a special, warmth-loving houseplant that thrives superbly in dry terrariums or on sunny windowsills.
