Know before you buy
Grafting involves joining a cutting from a mature, high-quality plant onto a hardy rootstock. This process ensures the plant produces consistent, true-to-type flowers much earlier than a plant grown from seed.
Desert Roses are sensitive to cold and may enter a dormant state during cooler months, which can cause them to drop their leaves. If your plant arrives without foliage, simply place it in a warm, sunny spot and it will naturally regrow its leaves once the spring season begins.
This plant requires full sun to thrive and produce its signature pink and white flowers. Aim for a location that receives at least six to eight hours of direct sunlight daily, such as a south-facing window or a sunny patio.
Yes, you can keep it indoors as long as you provide a very bright, sunny location and maintain temperatures above 60°F. Because it is a desert native, it is well-suited for indoor environments provided it receives enough light.
The Desert Rose is a slow-growing succulent that typically reaches between 1 and 3 feet in height. Its iconic thickened caudex will continue to expand and develop character as the plant matures.
