The desert rose (Adenium obesum) is a slow-growing plant, only growing about 12 inches per year. Desert rose is often used as a bonsai plant thanks to its thick succulent trunk, thin and delicate leaves, and luscious, deep pink trumpeting flowers. It is native to Africa, the Middle East, and Madagascar. Desert rose is an indoor or outdoor plant depending on your location. In many tropical and warmer climates, it's a widely-used ornamental outdoor plant, and in cooler zones, it is grown indoors.
