Plant Care – Euphorbia Lactea

Light: Euphorbia Lactea thrives in bright, indirect light. Place it near a sunny window where it can receive several hours of sunlight each day.

Water: Allow the soil to dry out completely between waterings. Water sparingly, as this plant is drought-tolerant and susceptible to root rot if overwatered.

Soil: Plant in a well-draining cactus or succulent mix. Ensure the pot has drainage holes to prevent waterlogging.

Fertiliser: Feed sparingly during the growing season (spring and summer) with a balanced liquid fertiliser diluted to half the recommended strength. Avoid fertilising during the dormant winter months.

Humidity: Is tolerant of average indoor humidity levels. However, it may benefit from occasional misting in dry environments.

Fun Fact about Euphorbia Lactea: Did you know? Despite its coral-like appearance, it is not actually a coral or a cactus but rather a succulent plant belonging to the Euphorbiaceae family.
