" They based all Adeniums under 'obesum'." hum, a bit under-educated, huh?

And here's the OOPS! Those Who Name, are now calling arabicum the real obesum, and they claim obesum needs to be called something else!!!

Obesum means fat, obese. Arabicums really do grow fatter than obesums. So I guess the Namers are correct. but sheesh!

I just learned this about five minutes ago. On facebook there are a number of really good groups of very knowledgeable growers, including nurserymen who have been fooling with these plants for decades. I'll head anyone in their direction if you let me know here. NO ACORNS!!!
