The Adenium's natural growth habit is to have a bare stem with the leaves clustered around the active growth portion (normally the top 20 to 30 cm of the stem); the base is normally bare.

If the basal leaves are turning yellow and then dropping, this could mean that the root system is damaged (over watering or too much fertilizer).

If this worries you, or the plant starts to look to lanky, you can selectivley cut back some of the stems by about 2/3 - don't do them all at once else the plant will look like a sick hedgehog!
