Set: African Milk Tree & Quartz Pot
Euphorbia trigona 'Rubra' with Quartz Pot Large
Easy Care
Flowering Plant
An architectural succulent in lovely colours combined with our favourite Quartz pot!
The Euphorbia trigona 'Rubra' or African Milk Tree, is a succulent variety grown in Central and Southern Africa. Our favourite not-actually-a-cactus cactus. Its thick deep green stems are lined with small spikes and overhanging leaves, in a deep maroon colour.
My stems have three wing-like angles and carry short, sharp spines as well as leaves. Given the right conditions, I can grow into an impressive tree.
We've paired it with the dappled pink glazed Quartz Pot Large. The green, pink and red colour contrasts make it a beautiful feature to have all year round.
As a succulent, this plant will need very little watering, especially during winter, and likes a bright spot.
Combo includes: Euphorbia trigona 'Rubra' Succulent and Quartz Pot Large
Euphorbia sap contains highly toxic latex, so make sure to wash your hands immediately, if you come into contact with it.
Set: African Milk Tree & Quartz Pot Care Guide
Light
I like a lot of light, and will happily sit in direct sun, unlike a lot of other varieties.
Water
I can't take too much moisture, so wait until my soil is completely dry before watering me.
Temperature
I don't like the cold and should be kept above 13°C.
Feeding
Give me some feed once or twice during the warmer months. An all-purpose, or succulent-specific fertilizer will do the trick.
Grooming
I don't need any pruning, but would like the occasional dust to maintain the beauty of my ruby leaves.
