Desert Rose

Adenium obesum

Description:

Think it's beautiful? Yeah. But it is also poisonous! Well, at least to some animals, that is why it is used as arrow poison in hunting. :) The desert rose is a beautiful subject for bonsai.

Habitat:

Found commonly in Africa and Arabia, this plant is also widely grown in the Philippines (where I took this picture),
