Socotra bottle tree (Adenium obesum ssp. socotranum)

This species is endemic to Socotra, meaning it grows only on this island! They come in so many shapes and sizes and sometimes resembles works of art – with or without flowers.

Despite this it was not easy to find a specimen with a great shape and with flowers, as either I found amazing shapes without any flower, or flowers with generic shapes. But I was in luck with this one, as it also had as sister growing in the background.

Endemic.
