Adenium multiflorum is small, succulent tree native to central and eastern Southern Africa . It may be deciduous or evergreen , and is found in dry woods or grassland in its native habitat.[1] It is typically 0.5–3 m tall.[2] Like other succulent members of the family Apocynaceae , A. multiflorum has a milky latex with toxic alkaloids , specifically Cardiac glycosides . This latex is used as an arrow poison and as a fish stunning poison .[3]
The leaves are simple, with smooth edges, typically oppositely arranged.[4] The flowers , which appear in winter, are typically 5-petaled and may be red, pink, white, or bi-color.[5] The two-capsuled fruits contain long, grooved, hairy brown seeds .[4]
Sometimes called the impala lily, A. multiflorum requires full sun and excellent drainage. It is extremely drought tolerant , but susceptible to the tobacco whitefly .[6] Though frequently used as a bonsai plant indoors, it may be grown outside in USDA hardiness zones 10 and 11.[7]
It is sometimes treated as a variety or subspecies of Adenium obesum .[2]
