A true collector’s gem, the Dorset Horn Adenium Arabicum—often called the “Desert Rose”—is prized for its distinctive swollen caudex that forms thick, curving “horn-like” roots, giving it a striking sculptural presence. Native to arid regions, this slow-growing succulent tree combines bold structure with seasonal beauty, producing clusters of vibrant, trumpet-shaped blooms in shades of pink to deep rose against glossy green leaves.
This variety is especially valued among bonsai enthusiasts and desert plant collectors for its unusual caudex formations, resilience, and dramatic display. Its architectural form makes it a living work of art, perfect as a focal point indoors by a sunny window or outdoors in warm climates.
Care Tips:
Light: Thrives in full sun to bright, direct light.
Water: Water deeply but infrequently; allow soil to dry fully between waterings.
Soil: Requires fast-draining cactus or succulent mix.
Temperature: Prefers warm conditions; protect from frost.
Pet Safety: Like all Adeniums, the Dorset Horn contains toxic sap and should be kept out of reach of pets and children.
