1. LightingNo matter which season it is, it needs sunlight. Especially when the temperature is low and it is in flowering period, it is usually grown on a windowsill with good lighting conditions. The light must be good to make its flowers bloom brightly and beautifully, and the flowering period will be longer. Be careful to avoid a situation where the light does not meet the requirements, otherwise the color of its flowers will be lighter. If it is kept in an environment with insufficient light for a long time, it may not bloom, especially in winter, when its leaves will fall off in large numbers. 2. TemperatureWhen growing Euphorbia milii in winter, you must pay attention to keeping warm. If the temperature can be controlled above 15 degrees, it will continue to bloom throughout the winter. The temperature must not be lower than 0 degrees, otherwise it will be frozen to death. If the temperature is low and there is insufficient light, its leaves will fall off and it will enter a state of suspended growth and dormancy, which will make people mistakenly think that it is dead and discard it. In fact, when the weather warms up in spring, it will continue to sprout and grow leaves on its branches, and it can continue to bloom! 3. WaterIn winter, flowering Euphorbia requires a lot of water. Generally, it needs to be watered every two or three days, but be careful not to allow water to accumulate. Just keep the soil moist, otherwise its roots will rot or even the whole plant will die! 4. FertilizerEuphorbia milii grows relatively slowly, generally only growing about 10 cm a year, so it does not need or like large amounts of fertilizer. However, you can put some horseshoes at the bottom of the pot as base fertilizer when potting or repotting. During the winter flowering period, apply a thin liquid fertilizer once every half a month. Be careful not to use fertilizers that are too concentrated, otherwise it may be burned to death by the concentrated fertilizer! Finally, I would like to remind everyone that the whole plant of Euphorbia milii has thorns, and the white latex in the stems is poisonous, so when growing it at home, you must pay attention to the location where you place it to avoid hurting children and poisoning. |
