as in Big island, Hawaii ?
adenium know only 2 seasons - wet and dry
wet is the *hot* summer growing season -
dry is the *cooler* winter dormancy period -
in summer - treat / water adenium like a tropical plant
in winter - treat / water adenium like a cacti plant
summer watering should be to saturation
during dormancy water 30 to 60 days apart - but less than the volume of pot
most references list adenium as evergreen ....but no mater where they are grown - adenium do enter dormancy - even in the Islands
when dormancy happens, the plants needs are reduced ....less water, no fertilizer -
a few adeniums will loose leaves, other adeniums loose all leaves - yet others retain all leaves ....
during dormancy - growth at stem tips usually comes to a full stop ...sometimes sporadic growth will occur ...and sometimes plants will flower ....dormancy breaks with new growth
curling and drooping leaves is related to too little watering .... too little sunlight and / or a nutritional deficiency - too little or none at all
adenium will grow better (and fuller) outside, under full sun (at least 6 hours) .... assuming plants never freeze - they can stay outside year round
never allow adenium to sit in water ...EVER
once the growing season returns .... start watering (at least once every 7 days) and fertilizing .....
if plant has entered dormancy - everything appears okay .... as the "signs" droopy & curled leaves are what you want this time of year
just to be sure - I would pull the "curled leaves" adenium from its pot ....insure the drainage holes are not clogged-up ....knock off all old potting media - make certain the roots are healthy ....
repot with a fresh fast draining / sandy / gritty / chunky potting media ....
