These cuttings are very easy to root and the plant grows fast in a pot, or even faster in the ground.
Simply place cut tip into potting soil and keep slightly moist (allow cut surface to callous over before planting).
Once established it is care free and can easily handle drought.
They turn red at the tips in bright sunlight. They will grow indoors in a container, but may not stay red.
It is drought tolerant but cold hardy only to about 30 degrees F.
Other details:
This is one of the heaviest latex producers of all species of Euphorbia which share the same milky white sap. It is caustic and therefore plants must be handled with care to avoid contaminating the eyes. Beware of use where pets and children share its space.
