Description & Care Guide

🌿 Care Guide

Plant Name: Euphorbia milii Red
Botanical Name: Euphorbia milii
Common Names: Crown of Thorns, Christ Plant
Origin: Madagascar

🌞 Light

Thrives in bright, direct to indirect sunlight. Needs at least 4 hours of good light daily for continuous red flowering. Ideal for sunny windowsills and balconies.

💧 Watering

Water when the soil is completely dry — every 2–3 weeks in summer. Very drought-tolerant. Less is always more with this plant.

🌡️ Temperature

Ideal range: 65–95°F (18–35°C). Cannot tolerate frost or temperatures below 50°F (10°C).

🌱 Soil

Use a well-draining cactus or succulent mix. Excellent drainage prevents root rot.

✂️ Maintenance

Wear gloves when handling — thorns are sharp and the milky sap is toxic. Prune to shape after flowering. Fertilize monthly during the growing season.

⚠️ Sad Plant Signs

🟡 Yellow, dropping leaves – Overwatering or cold stress.
🌸 No red flowers – Insufficient light. Move to a brighter spot.
🍂 Leggy, thin stems – Not enough light or nutrients.
