Adenium Obesum
Lots of common names:
Sabi Star, Desert Rose, Kudu, Mock Azelia and Impala Lily
Native to regions south of the Sahara from Senegal to Sudan, and parts of eastern and southern Africa and Arabia. The sap from it's roots and stems is toxic and is used as arrow poison in Africa for hunting large game. It is also used as a toxin for fishing. In our neck of the woods it is an ornamental plant and can be grown indoors as a bonsai.
