The adenium plants is to be re-poted according to its growth. The plants we supply from harvyora.com will be ready for re-poting in six months or more. Adenium prefer pots that allow their soil to dry rapidly and to allow room for their swollen base or caudex to expand. We recommend an 8 inch clay or ceramic pot that is no deeper than 4 inches, a typical cactus type pot. You may re-pot your desert rose every year or two to larger size pot if desired; however, it may remain in shallow 8 inch pot forever.
