Desert Rose leaves turning brown and falling.

[swsb]

Assalam-o-alikum,

Last week I bought this plant from nursery. I once water it until water coming from bottom hole then water it a little today. It leaves are turning yellow and falling off is it in dormecy period? Or I overwater it?




Thanks and regards, Waqas

Its name is Adenium. If in Lahore or plain areas of Punjab.
1) Stop watering it completely (It is very sensitive to winter overwatering)
2) Pace it in basement or any dark corner for best flowering afterwards.
Other procedure of storing. Take it out from soil. Wash it. Wrap in paper and place in cupboard during End Feb-Start March take it out and plant in very well draining medium and see the lovely flowers.

Thanks and Jazak Allah Umair for your advices.

I also have two more Adenium plant in small pots easily notice in above images. One is on blooming and other has started new growth. I live in Tando Jam Rural Area of Hyderabad, Sindh where we have only few extreme cold days and temp it drop as lowest 4 C. Is it better to keep this plant in dark place or the shadow is better? Actually I fully water for removing any air pocket from it because I purchased it from Hyderabad Nursery which is almost 22 KM away from my home and I bring it at my home on my Motorbike. It easily get air pockets on bike because of road conditions .

Anyways thanks for your advice any other expert advice is also welcome specially from Mr. Izhar from Karachi.

Thanks and Jazak Allah Khair.
