Thank you. Very helpful. I've had one for many years that has grown out of control. So now I know how to take cuttings, for new plants and help the original.
Thanks for the information, and I love hearing the chook clucking in the background,!
Omg🌵💕 I just got one! I’m here to learn about its care🌵 thank you for sharing
Dont get the milk in your eyes. And wash your hands if you get the milk on your hands
Mine hate being in any type of sandy mix. I have a Euphorbia Ingens and a Euphorbia Trigona Red Cathedral, and both mine are planted in a mix of unfertilized sphagnum moss and Perlite (1 handful of Perlite per 2 handfuls of soil), with some Leca in the bottom for extra drainage, and mine are growing like absolute mad. They get so fussy when I try to add some sand into the mix.. And both are in direct sunlight from noon till sundown 😂 During the winter they even love being a few hours under my grow lights.
In regards to the sap, when you cut it just put the "wound" under running cold water. The sap will stop almost instantly :)
Thank you! Wow so happy I found your channel. You are right about there not being much out there on euphorbias. I just purchased this plant yesterday. I already knew euphorbias need a lot more water, but that was about it. A very informative video and I love your calm and soothing nature!!! 😊
I just bought one of these. I fell in love the moment I saw it! So thankful for this video.
Thx...need to propogate mine...tall thin and yes leaves are spacious and a joy to watch as they grow💜 informative info for sure👍keep mine in a pot on my patio and loves it there, however here in north Carolina USA weather getting cooler so wanted to find out how to keep it looking fabulous...will bring in soon...was 50's last night 😊I use gallon water with pinch of miracle grow for plants...just started doing so🤔
❤ thank you for this video. I just got a couple of the green ones.
Thank you so much for this informative video! I love your videos and plants. I’ve gotten into more unique and exotic plants. I’m currently waiting for one of these in the mail, and I like to know beforehand how to take care of them!
Just got mine a week ago. Thanks for the tips here. My cat loves to bite off the leaves though that's why I had to put it way high.
Thank you for this video!I just got two and they like more water like you said.This was the best video on their care-great job!
Thanks so much for the info! You’re right, it’s been super hard to find videos with helpful information. So glad I found your channel. ☺️✌🏼
Just rec'd my new euphorbia purpa, this week. Super excited, looking for great growth spurts.❤
Love that plant! Did not know the name, I have two 6 feet ones in my yard...shade does it.
Watching your video and I guess you had so many beautiful house plants , see more later .
This video is so helpful! 🌵 Is there a way to promote branching on these guys?
Euphorbias are my favorite!
i just bought these today at home depot thank you!
Great video! So helpful! I have a beautiful euphorbia but it is SO tall. I am wondering if and how I can cut it back a bit safely without killing it or making it look less beautiful.
Thank you!
The noises at 5:00 really scared me! I thought there was a dog in my house 😂. Thanks for the info! Just bought a tiny one of these :)
Thank you so much! I didn’t know they don’t like direct sunlight, mine is turning yellow 😐 I’m movin’ it right now! Thanks again 😊
I love euphorbias.
thank you 🙏
Thank for the tips. Really informative!
They are beautiful!🌵🌵🌵
I see this video is a year old but still hoping to get some advice. I've had my Euphorbia trigona, (the all green one) for around 25 to 30 years. It is around 6 feet tall. Unfortunately we had a flooding issue in our house last year and my plant got stuck in behind all the furnishings we had to move out of the wet area. It didn't get any water for months and now it is all dried and brittle. The main stem seems ok, but the branches growing off that stem are dried and brittle. I would really love to save this plant as it's almost as old as my son, who grew up with it, and loves it. Do you have any suggestions on what I could do to save it? I was thinking maybe I could cut off all the stems to a few inches from the main trunk. Or possibly cut the top of the main trunk, and remove all the stems. Anyhow, I do hope you get to see my comment, even a year after your video, and can help me. Thank you and thanks for the good video. I also didn't know these plants need to be watered more then I had been doing throughout it's life! Good to know! I'll also subscribe to your channel. I enjoyed watching very much, thanks.
Thanks for all the great information.
I just got a white euphoria in. And the roots seem to be at the very bottom and soil seems to be piled around the trunk of it. 2 or 3 inches. Is this how they grow? Or do I need to repote it and put the roots at the top of the pot? And it also seems like it would be very wobbly. And I would need to support it.
Thank you! Very informative!
I love the chickens
💚 Hello. Could you please tell me if there's any new info or updates on the plant care? I've read once that they shouldn't be watered from October to March. I also live in Berlin, Germany, but I use lamps in winter.
I wanna make sure she doesn't lose her leaves. The soil is currently feeling bone dry, light as a feather, but I'm scared to over-water again.
Thank you, very helpful!
I live in the Arizona Gilbert area, should I bring them indoors in winter and summer?
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! Needed that!
great video! needed this :)
I've had mine for 3wks..8t started getting soggy in the middle.. what do I do??
Just got one and I noticed that two stems are turning white 😮 what can it be?
You know mine was dry at the top too inches but it was dying I dumped it out to find out there was a huge pocket of water so I repotted it into a pot with holes
Nice sharing friend
how do you make it get branches? thank you
thank you for not answering my question

in your video you saperate cacti from succulents, when in reality cacti are succulents. So saying that the euphorbia trigona is inbetween cacti and succulents doesn't really make sense, because again, euphorbia are succulents too. Correct me if im wrong but thats what i learned at school
also cacti and euphorbia are NOT closely related. Cacti are native to america, while euphorbia are native to africa. They evolved seperatly and just happen to have similar features because of similar enviroments...
What about the leaves? I bought one a couple of days ago and its alread losing its leaves, I've watered it once a week and its by the south western window so afternoon + eve sun...
In my experience they tend to lose leaves more when underwatered. They also turn a bleached out yellow color when they are getting too much light. It is possible that they can get too much direct light as they don’t need as much sun as cacti. They would prefer morning sun if you are giving them direct light.
@@photosyntheguys8032 Thanks, will def try to water it more then. Keep the soil slightly moist a few inches deep! I will keep an eye out for the coloour. I live in Belgium (Europe), which is +- comparable to USDA zone 8 so I have it inside a 1,5 meters away from the window in order for it get sufficient sun as I read its better for it to retain that beautiful red colour.
Thanks for the video, quite interesting :) I also have the rubra and the white ghost euphorbia. Do you think that the care for the white ghost is the same in respect of watering and light?
@Photosyntheguys actually I'd love to see a video about the white ghost :)
I think the white ghost requires slightly less water as it doesn’t grow as fast so It doesn’t dry out as fast. Otherwise I treat mine both the same.
I love it plant fron Brasil 🇧🇷
Thank u! New subber!
Treat it like a cactus. Same care. Do not over soak them.
It dont like to be moist, i have 2 and both 4ft tall...
No answer to do you feed it!!!
after propagation does the cutting on the mother plant need to be sealed in any way ?
Nope. They'll scab.
Can I cut the main plant at the base of my milk tree ?? Mine got extremely weak and soft and it’s only about 3 feet tall 😔
Hi, yes you can. I’ve actually seen this method before to make a fuller plant. If you cut the main stem and let it callous over, when it grows again it will grow many arms from where it was cut. Be sure to let it dry out though if it is weak and soft, it may be from overwatering.
I lost mine to fungus :(
I just got one that's in rough shape. 1 "branch" is kinda falling over. Do you know how I can get that one to stand up straight again or should I cut it off?
Hi, if the branch is falling over it is best to cut the branch. It won’t stand up on its own again. You can definitely get a propagation out of it if the branch is still healthy. And a new branch will grow from the cut spot. Make sure to make the smallest surface area cut possible to make a smaller blemish on the mother plant.
❤️
Can you cut the base. It's growing too tall
Yes! You'll get more branches!!
Random question..do you have chickens? Or am i hearing things?🤣
