(b) Butterflies love to lay eggs on the Adenium and
the caterpillars can quickly destroy the leaves in no time at all!


There is an Adenium list, but, FYI, the Adenium is related to Oleander
and like Oleander
1. It is poisonous
2. it is attacked by the Oleander caterpillar.

Hi,
I am new to growing Adenium and was wondering what everyone would
advise for a growth medium or mixture.
Thanks in advance

I use the regular Bonsai mix. 1/3 Turface, 1/3 gravel, 1/3 composted
pine bark.
