Self-set seeds, almost certainly self-pollinated.Parentage: Adenium "arabicum", self-set seed from 'Yemeni Giant'
Creator: Mark Dimmitt selection, sown 2009.
Plant form: A spreading shrub with a massive squat caudex. Mother plant at left is 3 feet tall x 4 feet wide at 13 years old. It's about half the size of its seed parent, but larger than dwarf "arabicum" clones. Potentially evergreen; does not require a dry winter rest.
Flower: Round to semi-star shaped, 73 mm in diameter x 31 mm petal width, wide dark pink to almost red petal edge, fading to near white at throat. Yellow throat with prominent nectar guides. The plant tends to flower repeatedly throughout the year if grown warm.
Notes: The most prominent trait is its indeterminate inflorescences. The flower count can well surpass 50, so a single inflorescence can be in bloom for two months or more. Named in memory of John Bliznak's mother.
