water info |
This plant will need to be protected from getting both cold and wet. Do not add additional water during periods of winter rain. During winter it should be kept extra dry and will be intolerant of overwatering. In the San Francisco Bay Area, protect this plant from getting too much water by putting it in a small pot. When the plant it actively growing, it will like water. If you see your euphorbia begin to shrivel or lose firmness, your plant is likely totally dry and should be watered. For good healthy growth, your plant doesn’t want to sit around totally dried out during its growing season. Once it is dry, water it. |
