Description

Euphorbia x japonica, is a dwarf interesting hybrid involving Euphorbia susannae and Euphorbia bupleurifolia. It has a thickened root merging into a short caudex partly underground with several ananas-like branches arising from the crown. . It’s comprised of lightly-leaved branches growing from a central caudex, or bulbous root system. As the top of the plant grows, the caudex beneath it becomes a hardened brown stalk. .

These plants produce small yellow-green flowers during the spring and summer time. Potted plants and plants grown indoors may not flower.

Euphorbia japonica does best in full sun, at least 5 to 8 hours a day. Avoid intense afternoon sun. Grow outdoors in light shade or indoors in a sunny window with southern exposure and direct sun.

Well suited for wet and humid climate, this thrives best in a little shades sunlight and responds well to warmth. It requires water when the soil becomes dry to touch specially during growing season and during summers. Watering should be minimal during winters

Landscape

Slow-growing choice Euphorbia. It is suitable as a container plant.

The easiest to keep alive - Cactus thrive on neglect! Coming from desert climates cactus love sun! However beware of the Indian afternoon sun! Keeping them in extreme heat, especially behind a glass which magnifies the heat can cause the cactus to burn. If you notice the cactus turning brown or yellow on the side facing the sun, try giving it a cooler place to thrive in!

For watering cacti, the golden rule is to make sure the soil is completely dry before watering! This will stop the roots from rotting. It is advised to always use a pot with a drainage hole so that excess water can get drained out. If kept in a sunny area, you will need to water it once every week. If it is in a semi shaded or filtered light area, you might need to water it once in 2 weeks.

Cacti like soil that is well aerated and fast draining. You can fertilise the cactus in the summer months when it is in its growing season. During the winters it is best to cut back on any fertiliser and let the plant rest.
