Desert Rose with 4 colors + stubborn desert rose finally bloom.

16 years ago

One of my newly grafted DR last April with 4 different colors. So far you can see 3 blooms, pink, red and white. One more set of leaves but no bloom on it yet. Tomorrow I will be on vacation for 2 weeks and won't be home when other buds open, so I post these pictures today. (I may not have internet while at camp site)

Look at the big leaves next to pink bloom. This will be another set.

You can see better with this view.

After the brutal winter, this 2 colors DR plant died all the way back to it's caudex. I cut it down only 2 inches beyond the caudex and it took so long to grow out new leaves. The white branch still young and has no bloom while the pink has a few. Last year this was one of my beautiful when in full bloom. (still 2 set of leaves)
