Adenium swazicum (Summer Impala Lily)

Native to Eswatini, southern Mozambique, and eastern South Africa, this deciduous succulent shrub grows about two feet tall. A swollen, partly buried stem stores water and supports thick branches. Pink to deep reddish pink flowers appear with the leaves, mainly from late summer into autumn. The sap is poisonous. Wild populations face habitat loss and collecting, and the species is listed as Vulnerable in South Africa. Photographed in Florida.
