I was given this Adenium obesum var. Arabicum "desert rose" and was told that they had just repotted it and it was given its first drink of the growing season. however the leaves look a bit dull and several are dieing off at the end, some have yellow at the base on new growth, pictures attached. I was hoping to get an opinion before pulling it out of the pot.?I'd like to avoid disturbing the roots if it was indeed just repotted, and that is what the issue is if any with the leaves??
Am I over thinking it? should i pull it and check the roots, maybe repot in something a little deeper??
second question, is that pot deep enough? it looks like its attempting to drop some new roots, where some older ones that were damaged had dried out.?

It is called repotting stress. There are no reason to pull it out of the pot again, it will just make it worse.

Tropfrog, you are amazing! I really appreciate you. I've left it alone and I'm seeing plenty of new leaves forming and a few new lateral stems coming out. As always you have been a wealth of Knowledge?
