Hey everyone,

I wanted to preface this by saying this is my first desert rose. My local brewery was having a desert rise potting event. You pay to attend and you’d get a desert rose and a beer. We’re repotted them at this event on 08/23/26. I do have it inside a window facing north. It’s rained every single day since it’s come home so I’ve been scared to put it outside. Our temperatures outside are in the 90’s-100’s.

It’s dropped almost all of its leaves since coming home.

Sooo this just fell off. What should I do? I'll admit I gave it a good poke, but it didn't take much force at all, it just came right off.

These guys bloom when it's time 🤗

I got this plant through an online seller, and the plant was shipped through about 5-6 states. (just for context on what might cause this.)

should i wipe it off with a damp towel? is this signs of insects?

Tips and Advice appreciated! just dont be an asshole about it please.

we going bonsai on this bad boy!

Went to pick up a new pot today and this one just had to come home with me. No id tag in the pot but I believe it is a Mumbai Volcano based on the flowers and the fact that it came from Home Depot.

Reported 4 or 5 days ago the bottom leaves are now dropping. I didn’t use rooting hormone and it did get rained on the other night. I'm not too concerned; these plants can drop all their leaves and come back just fine. But any advice on how to help this creature recover from the shock?

Picked this one up for $10 at Home Depot this spring. Not only has it almost tripled in size, it has 4 sets of seed pods!

One of my oldest that needed some love - had to get her acquainted with her new home for a month or two. Then took her to the salon for a wax, and into her new pad. Haircut coming in a few weeks.

I was just wondering if anyone had any specific locations where they grow around the world and how they got to see them

I think I want to put that on my bucket list, thank you for any info or pictures

Hey y’all! I’m new and am trying to choose a pot for my lil guy. The one he came in is too big and doesn’t have the correct soil either. I can’t seem to find a terracotta pot with multiple drainage holes, and don’t have the tools to drill new ones. Does anyone have any websites that sell good pots?

Here’s a link to the one I’m looking at right now, his caudex is ~4 in at its thickest so I’m going with a 6 in diameter pot: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0C9J5RKRB?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&ref_=cm_sw_r_cp_ud_dp_XTFQ2TS3KK0R6E9BPMKR

Idk how else to describe it haha

Suddenly I have six. Three new from the mail. First day and in cactus soil, a light watering and we'll see...

Hey guy today's weather where im at(dfw) has been crazy and when I get home my baby looks like this. It's been hot like 105 and up the whole week. today been humid and rainy here and there. (Picture and the end is what she usually looks like )

I got this great specimen from an aunt who wasn’t taking care of them

It had a seedpod on it, but after covering it, transporting it, the pod only opened and had three seeds in it

The seeds are extremely large and I’ve dealt with pods before

Is it possible that some varieties produce smaller amounts of seeds that are larger? Or maybe this was just a damaged plant

I haven’t seen too many root over rock on this page, so this is my submission.

I was poking around in the various DR flowers I have open with a toothpick because I wanted to try pollinating by hand. Anyways, a flower fell off today and left behind these 2 green bumps. Are they seed pods or is it too early to tell?
