Brilliant Red Bloom
Adenium obesum
Usually our obesums have a pink bloom, sometimes even mostly white. This is the reddest one I’ve seen. So red, I had trouble getting the picture not to turn into mud, but I think I’ve captured it.
And yet, it sits on our counter and hasn’t sold yet. Someone saw it 5 minutes after I put it out on Saturday, and said they were coming back for it, but they haven’t yet. There are more than a dozen more blooms yet to come. I sound like a salesman.
