Thats a desert rose adenium. Spring through summer it should be outside in maximum sunlight. The media should be porous and fast draining. I keep mine in a mix of Perlite, crushed lava rock, and Akadama. Theses take some work to grow well, and to get to flower, there are subs and garden groups dedicated to them so you should look more in depth if you want to learn proper care. Generic plant info wont suffice , but I will say it’s gonna hate that soil its currently in. It should be watered frequently (almost daily) during the growing season, but the soil should not retain moisture. Once flower buds form, you stop watering all together until flowering has finished.
