Very well-done tutorial, young man. I've been doing traditional bonsai for 20 years and just fell in love with Desert Roses. I've been learning about root rot the hard way. Getting used to the idea that the proper soil should be SO dry has been a challenge. Thank you for taking the time to deal with this issue in a careful and well-explained way.

I have been doing bonsai and have just discovered Desert Roses and I am so excited to get started on them Have about 20 from small seedlings to 2 year old ones and one that I am guessing about 4 years old. Also ordered some seeds. How old is the one you are working on there? Why not do the root chop now as opposed to waiting? Loving your videos!!

Love that plant pot-where did you get it?

[carolficorilli]

There are some good vitamins you can give along with the fertilizer, but do not need to give it at the same time. It is called SuperThrive and it has alot of good reviews.

You can use Bonsai soil the ones from Bonsai Supply and that will work great as well.

Nice video! Do you think that ~30% coco coir mixed with ~70% Lava rock is a good soil mix for adenium?

What nutrients do you add to it? Because I do not see where the clay and the bark have the nutrients.

Help! I cannot find the video where you plant the desert rose from seeds?
Thanks

Why did you use such a small pot? Different growers would disagree with your choice.
