Adenium.........more than just flowers.........Caudex
From time to time I toss in a few photos of Adenium flowers. They can be really nice.
Adenium also have a very interesting swollen base called a caudex (plural = caudices).
However, in my opinion, it is the caudices that make these plants special.
Following intensive study for the past 2 years I have found that certain crosses make incredible caudices.
For example, the plant in the first 2 photos below is in a 3 gallon pot and is about 1.5 years old.
