Thanks! Did you see the pics of it in full bloom? In summer it's covered with so many flowers, you can barely see the leaves.

Desert Rose blooms young...usually within a year and half from seed. However, it doesn't do a really full bloom for 3 years.

Desert Rose should do very well where you live. It's a pretty tough plant! Yes, most plants in the Apocyanaceae family are poisonous or have a strong toxicity.
