Care & tips for the Euphorbia Lactea Cristata - 30cm
The Euphorbia Lactea Cristata is the definition of an easy houseplant and really is easy-care. But even the toughest plants need a bit of attention now and then. Make sure you know how to look after it properly, so you can enjoy your green housemate for years to come.
How much water does the Euphorbia Lactea Cristata - 30cm need?
Take care not to give the Euphorbia too much water. This houseplant isn't the thirsty type at all. The soil may dry out between waterings. In winter you give it considerably less, because it uses almost nothing then.
How much light does the Euphorbia Lactea Cristata - 30cm need?
The Euphorbia looks like a cactus, so it likes as much (sun)light as it can get.
Is the Euphorbia Lactea Cristata - 30cm toxic?
The Euphorbia Lactea Cristata is unfortunately a mildly toxic houseplant. The sap that comes out of the plant looks like milk and can be very irritating on the skin and on mucous membranes. So take care around pets and small children, and consult a doctor if any is swallowed.
