Caring for your Euphorbia

 

  • Pot: In frost free and lower rainfall areas  Euphorbias will do well in sunny position in the rockery.  Euphorbia species do very well in containers and are often more attractive and compact when the growth is restricted.

 

  • Soil: The plants prefer a well drained sandy medium with some organic matter.

 

  • Light: The plants like very bright light and are best grown in sunny positions. The brighter the light the more compact your plant will be, the colour in patterned species will also be more pronounced.

 

  • Water: The plants prefer being watered every two weeks, depending on the growing conditions. Well established Euphorbia plants can withstand prolonged droughts.
