My Adenium’s Leaves Are Wrong!

As a plant person, the performance of this particular plant has been disappointing.  I don’t want to be ungrateful because the flowers have been magnificent.  It’s the rest of the plant, which looks droopy and battered,  that is not up to par.  As you can see the leaves are hanging when they should be really perky, without crimps in the tips.  After checking  information about this Adenium obesum, it seems likely that it’s one of those picky/not -so -picky plants.  Plant people will know what I mean.  Guess the temperature on the window sill was just a little too chilly.  Will have to check into that.  Anyone interested in further data on this plant can check the internet using the name given.

    I think maybe it may just like some new dirt, and maybe some food. This should probably be done for it just before you are ready to put it outside for the summer months. Good to see you posting ‘blogs again! :)
