Adenium obesum
Extremely durable plant, large bulbous root, sparse leaves.
http://houseplants.about.com/od/succulen... The desert rose (Adenium obesum) is a striking plant with swollen succulent stems and deep red flowers. The plant is deciduous in cooler winters, but it can be kept in leaf provided there is sufficient warmth and light water. There is no part of these plants that doesn't command interest, from the dramatically swollen stems on older plants to the bright flowers to the tight clusters of narrow, green leaves.

You're welcome! I've been growing a desert rose plant for around 5 years now. If you ever accidentally break a branch off like me, don't worry, you can propagate them just by using their branches! My broken off branches even bloomed after I potted them.
looks like a bonsai frangipani
Thx reeoooe! Looks like I need to take care of this one differently than I have been.
It should be a desert rose plant.
