In the spring and summer put your Adenium outdoors and sit it among the other plants. It's heat tolerant plants and like a lot of sun.

The potting mix must provide excellent drainage and aeration.

Adeniums need ample root-space for rapid growth. Plant should be repotted frequently until it attain their desired size. Select a pot size that leaves 2 to 3 inches of free space around the roots unless you want to keep the plant from growing in size. One of our favourite types of pots are bonsai.
