Cultivation methods and precautions of Euphorbia graminea

Euphorbia graminea is a relatively easy-to-grow plant. It is easy to plant and can be used for decorative purposes such as paving, edging, flower borders, and potting. It is not afraid of heat and has a certain degree of cold resistance. It blooms almost all year round and is much easier to grow than some other flower plants.

How to cultivate Euphorbia graminea

1. Temperature

Euphorbia graminea is a flower plant with a relatively long flowering period, so it has relatively high requirements for the growth temperature, otherwise it will easily affect the quality of flowering. Under normal circumstances, it is best to maintain a growth temperature above 15°C. Its lowest cold-resistant temperature is about -5°C, but it cannot be kept in a low temperature environment for a long time, otherwise the branches and leaves will be frozen and blackened.

2. Soil

Euphorbia graminea does not have too many requirements for the soil. As long as it contains certain nutrients and maintains good air permeability, it will be fine. Therefore, you should be careful not to use soil that is too sticky. You can use peat soil or leaf mold as a growing medium.

3. Moisture

The growth of Euphorbia graminea must be supplied with sufficient water, but it should be noted that it is a plant that is very afraid of waterlogging, so just keep the soil in the pot slightly moist when watering. If there is waterlogging in the basin, be sure to clean it up in time.

Precautions for the maintenance of Euphorbia graminea

1. Flower lure

If you want Euphorbia graminea to bloom continuously, you must go through a low-temperature stage of inducing flowers in winter. That is to say, after winter, the temperature must be kept below ten degrees, and the branches must be pruned in time to make the whole plant shorter. This will complete the flower-inducing process and ensure smooth flowering next year.

2. Ventilation

Euphorbia graminea requires a sufficiently ventilated growing environment. If the ventilation is insufficient, the soil will easily become stuffy and damp, causing the roots to rot and the plant to become in poor condition.
