I have at least 50 Adeniums in my collection. I'm growing them all as bonsai subjects. Some have needed more training than others. I'll post a few pictures each week. First up are some Adenium arabicum that I have not posted photos of yet. Adenium arabicum is probably the easiest Adenium species to train as a bonsai, as it seems to grow that way naturally. A little wire and movement of a few branches is in most cases, what I've had to do to many of my A. arabicums.

This A. arabicum was a little more complicated in it's training. It needed more wiring and some pruning to get the desired umbrella like canopy.
