Welcome! to the adenium pages

hanging adenium ? ... or raising adenium ?

raising or lifting is just planting the plant higher in the pot .....

raising will expose more of the caudex ....

raise no more than 1 to 2" inches ....

to get started - note where the plant is, in relation to pot rim .....

it is best to knock off or wash off the root ball ...

back-fill the pot with a few hand-fulls of fresh potting medium ...

set plant on back-fill and check if "higher" than where it was in relation to the pot rim .... when
desired height is reached - finish filling in the pot to about 1" of the pot rim

wait a week to 10 days before watering
