Thanks!
Coconut - define old part of Houston. That covers a few areas.
I did see a few at the Home Depot on South 45/Woodridge the other day. They weren't blooming but had good size caudex and are probably generic pink. Your friend might want rescue one of them since they more likely will not be protected when the temp drops to about 33F Monday. I only found out about other color/multi petal blooms around this mid summer and was even more hooked on these plants. So I stumbled on this forum, the adenium forum on gardenweb and a yahoo group and lurked for a bit reading every thread I could. Then decided to join them all a month or so back.
A lady in Houston on the gardenweb forum emailed me a list of a few nurseries in Houston that get multiple varieties and usually in spring time. If you send me a private message I'll reply with those places. That lady is also supposed to send me a catalog one of the nursery owners sends her before he places his order so she can pick out a few she wants him to order for her (from Thailand I believe) and she picks them up at his nursery.
Right now I'm having to add to my collection on the cheap (via seeds) since I've had a few unexpected expenditures this year, unfortunately.
