Easy to root and grow

It is a winter dormant and easy species to grow that is suited for any well drained soil in full sun.

But young plant are happy growing indoors, where they can easily reach the ceiling.

Give the plant an airy growing medium which mainly consists of non organic material such us clay, pumice, lava grit, and only a little peat or leaf-mould.

Water regularly during the active growing season from March to September.

No water should ever be allowed to stand around the roots. Keep almost completely dry in winter.

It is a moderately fast grower,and will quickly become large landscape masterpieces in just 3-7 years.

It can tolerate moderate shade, and a plant that has been growing in shade should be slowly hardened off before placing it in full sun as the plant will be severely scorched if moved too suddenly from shade into sun.

Like quite small pots, repot in very later winter, early spring.

Can be pruned for shape and branching.

Frost tender, frost free zones only. -

Euphorbia tirucalli (commonly known as aveloz, Indian tree spurge, naked lady, pencil tree, pencil cactus, milk bush) is a tree that grows in semi-arid tropical climates.

It has a wide distribution in Africa, being prominently present in northeastern, central and southern Africa.

It may also be native in other parts of the continent as well as some surrounding islands and the Arabian peninsula and has been introduced to many other tropical regions.

Its status in India is uncertain.It grows in dry areas, and is often used to feed cattle or as hedging.

It is well known in Sri Lanka where it is called Kalli in Tamil

Euphorbia tirucalli is a hydrocarbon plant that produces a poisonous latex which can, with little effort, be converted to the equivalent of gasoline.

This led chemist Melvin Calvin to propose the exploitation of E. tirucalli for producing oil.

This usage is particularly appealing because of the ability of E. tirucalli to grow on land that is not suitable for most other crops. - In Stock

Cultivation:
Euphorbia lactea is only hardy to maybe 5° C and most grow it either in pots (excellent potted plant) or plant it in very protected locations.

Euphorbia lactea being from a tropical climate, it is one of the few columnar Euphorbias that do exceptionally well in very wet, humid climates.

It need bright light to partial shade for best appearance (but the variegated forms do best if protected from strong sunshine in the hottest hours of the day). It responds well to warmth, with its active growth period in the late spring and summer months.

Water thoroughly when soil is dry to the touch during active growing season (more than once a week during hot weather)

In the winter months, watering should be suspended or restricted to once over the winter.

The most common failure in growing this plant is over watering, especially during the winter months.

Likes porous soil with adequate drainage.

Succulent Euphorbias in greenhouses apparently are seldom affected by fungous diseases.

They grow well in a very draining mineral potting substrate, but they aren't picky about soil.

During the summer they enjoy average feeding and watering.

When dormant, plants are relatively cold tolerant. -
