A rose by any other name....

I've had my desert rose for a year, now, and it's doing wonderfully indoors. It's doubled in height, and it is a great conversation piece.

Top quality!

Being on the other side of the country I know it sometimes shocks some plants more than others. But this is the best site I’ve ever ordered plants from they are packaged so well.

Desert Rose

My plant arrived safely and well packed. The top of the stalk is green but there are no leaves. How long will it take for leaves to appear?
