Hi Michael,

Your plant looks like a Desert Rose plant (ADENIUM OBESUM). This plant is a type of caudiciform or “fat plant” because of its thick bulbous base. When grown indoors, a Desert Rose grows 2ft-5ft in height and 1ft-3 ft in width. Desert Rose plants have beautiful flowers and sparse small leaves. The 1″-2″ saucer shaped blooms are quite a conversation piece and can be red, pink, or white. The fat, bulbous trunk  is usually partially or completely buried in the soil. This is one of my favorite indoor flowering plants because it is so unusual and thrives on neglect. Here is a picture of a healthy one in bloom with a fantastic base.
