A plant adapted to extreme conditions
The desert rose is a succulent plant that stores water in its swollen trunk called a caudex. This adaptation allows it to withstand drought. Its flowers, often pink, red or white, contrast with its robust appearance.
It appreciates a sunny exposure and well-drained soil. Like the Ginger Bush , it belongs to the Apocynaceae family, but is distinguished by its adaptation to dry environments. It is very appreciated for its decorative and original appearance.
